Gaurav Gupta's Hiranyagarbha collection draws inspiration from Vedic philosophy's manifested cosmos and revolves around the five elements: earth (Prithvi), water (jal), fire (agni), air (vayu), and space (akasha) from the universal womb. The collection beautifully narrates the journey of birth, transformation, realization, and eventual harmony with the cosmos.

It took an impressive 457 man-hours to bring this artistic vision to life. The silhouettes presented on the runway featured a harmonious blend of taffetas, chiffon, velvet, and an abundance of glass bugle beads and crystals. Traditional Indian embroidery techniques such as zardozi, nakshi, and dabka added a touch of heritage to the modern designs.

Janhvi Kapoor, who took center stage as the muse for Gaurav Gupta, expressed her excitement and happiness about the show. She shared, "We literally had loads of fun today. I was quite excited. It was an amazing show."
