Vijay Varma is no stranger to experimental fashion, but his latest look has landed him in Ranveer Singh territory. The actor was recently spotted at a Mumbai event in a dramatic all-black outfit, and videos of his appearance quickly went online. While Vijay embraced a bold, unconventional silhouette, social media users quickly drew comparisons to Ranveer's famously flamboyant fashion choices.
For the event, the Matka King actor wore a fitted black top featuring a criss-cross lattice pattern with multiple cut-outs. Long strips of fabric extended from the sleeves and lower half of the top, giving the outfit a dramatic, almost theatrical finish. He paired the statement piece with high-waisted black leather trousers and oversized black sunglasses.
The look's combination of unusual detailing, exaggerated elements and an unconventional silhouette immediately caught the attention of social media users.
Among the reactions, several users saw shades of Ranveer Singh's fashion in Vijay's latest choice. One user cheekily called him "Ranveer Singh from Meesho," while another joked, "It looks like Ranveer Singh has gifted this outfit to Vijay Varma."
The comments reference Ranveer's reputation for pushing the boundaries of conventional menswear, particularly with his red-carpet and event appearances. From statement silhouettes to unexpected combinations, the actor has frequently made fashion a talking point. Vijay's look, however, stayed within an all-black palette, with the cut-out detailing and leather trousers doing most of the talking.
The Ranveer comparisons were not the only reactions to Vijay's outfit. Some social media users also brought fashion personality Uorfi Javed into the conversation. One comment read, "Male version of Urfi Javed", while another simply wrote, "Cartoon".
Vijay has previously embraced unconventional fashion, often opting for distinctive silhouettes instead of traditional menswear at public appearances. His latest look continues that approach, even as the internet remains divided between appreciating the experimentation and turning it into meme material.
For now, the Ranveer Singh comparisons have become one of the biggest talking points surrounding Vijay Varma's latest fashion outing. Vijay Varma was last seen in Lust Stories 3, which is now streaming on Netflix.
