Deepika Padukone set the red carpet on fire with her red hot avatar, as she donned a hand-draped silk gazar creation by Prabal Gurung at the 2018 Met Gala, often called the east coast equivalent of the Oscars, an evening where fashion and charity come together. Her outfit is the perfect balance of oomph and classy. The gorgeous actress opted for pearl and diamond Tasaki earrings and a matching statement ring. With bold, red lips and plastered hair, she was a vision of sinfulness. Needless to say, her attire received a thumbs up from netizens.

Here's what the Twitterati had to say:
