Salman Khan’s loud look sparks Govinda comparisons: What happened to Bollywood’s best-dressed star?

Salman Khan’s loud print-on-print look has fans asking, ‘What happened?’

Salman Khan has long been hailed as one of the best-dressed men in Indian cinema. Whether it’s his sharp suits, rugged casuals, or effortless ethnic wear, the Bollywood superstar has always had a signature style, one that blends charisma with an undeniable swagger. But his latest OTT (over-the-top) ensemble has left fans bewildered, with some even comparing him to Govinda’s maximalist fashion era.

A daring fashion move - or a rare misstep?

The superstar was recently spotted outside a Mumbai dubbing studio, making a bold sartorial statement in a print-on-print look that had fashion enthusiasts doing a double take. Salman, known for his dapper style and trendsetting choices, stepped out in an eye-popping Louis Vuitton monogram jacket, layered over a printed crew-neck T-shirt, and paired with acid-washed denim jeans.

The triple-toned blue LV jacket featured the brand’s iconic monogram print, zip detailing, and a fitted silhouette. Underneath, his T-shirt, with its white-and-light-blue pattern, added another layer of visual chaos to the mix. But it was his acid-washed black-and-white, wide-legged denim trousers that took the look from edgy to outright eccentric.

His accessories

For accessories, the Tiger Zinda Hai actor kept things signature Salman, hoop earrings, a baseball cap, high-ankle black sneakers, chunky rings, a statement watch, and his iconic bracelet.

​Fans are confused, is Govinda the inspiration?

Salman’s fans, usually in awe of his fashion choices, were left scratching their heads this time. Social media reactions ranged from humorous to outright savage.

"Is the dress designer his enemy?," read one comment. "What happened to Salman bhai? Fire the stylist!, said another."

Some disappointed fans commented, "We were fans of his aura ��… but that outfit is ��"

and one fan even compared him to Govinda,"Is he taking fashion inspiration from Govinda now?" read his comment.

5/6

A rare offbeat moment for a fashion icon

Despite this unexpected look, Salman Khan remains a fashion powerhouse in Bollywood. His style, often defined by masculine minimalism, tailored silhouettes, and effortless cool, has set trends for decades. While this print-heavy outfit may have been a departure from his usual charm, it only proves that even the most stylish stars aren’t afraid to take risks.

Up next, Salman Khan is gearing up for the release of Sikandar this Eid, alongside Rashmika Mandanna, directed by AR Murugadoss. He’s also set to appear in Kick 2 in the coming months.

So, was this a rare fashion fumble, or are we about to witness a new Salman Khan fashion era? Let us know what you think!
