Indian Celebs and Entrepreneurs at MET Gala Over the Years

What started as an evening for New York’s elite class has now turned into a sensational global event. The Met Gala is now the most anticipated red-carpet affair, bringing together icons from fashion, business, sports, music, and film – all united for a common cause. A cause that raises millions for the museum’s Costume Institute.

Over the years, this global event has pulled talents from across continents and seen an increasing representation of Indian celebrities, designers, and stylists making their mark at the Met Gala. Many stars with Indian roots have also shone in this realm. Some prominent faces from the past include Alia Bhatt, Sudha Reddy, Sabyasachi, Natasha Poonawala, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, Isha Ambani, Diya Mehta Jatia, Mona Patel, Simone Ashley, Frieda Pinto, and Mindy Kaling – each one bringing their unique flair!

As we eagerly await seeing who will be making it to the 2025 guest list from the Indian diaspora, let’s catch a glimpse of the unforgettable moments when Indian stars graced the Met Gala red carpet.
