Sadhana passed away this morning and with her has gone yet another leading lady who personified timeless elegance and grace. 

If you were a college girl in the early- to mid-’60s, especially in North India, there were high chances that you wore a clinging knee-length kurta, tight churidars to go, and a single pony or plait adorned by a fringe.

Street fashion has always been dictated by cinema trends, and what stars donned became the style du jour. During the ’60s, when Sadhana was all the rage, there was nothing as influential as the ‘Sadhana Cut’, and that outfit — her own creation — which looked as if the wearer had been poured into it. An ultra-stylish aunt who used to carry off that look once told me that the secret was an invisible zip on the side, which opened just enough to let you get into the kurta, and woe betide you if you had to scramble out of it in a hurry: it almost always tore.

Sadhana passed away Friday morning in a Mumbai hospital after a brief illness, and with her has gone yet another leading lady who personified timeless elegance and grace.
