   It's simple- a lehnga goes straight down (a bit like a skirt) and a gharara is like an open trouser. Think of a lehnga as similar to a maxi dress and a gharara as similar to a wide leg jumpsuit. Here a picture of both so you can get a clearer image in your head:

   I have to say that i dont think i've ever heard of a gharara, i've only heard of lehnga's and they are simply a skirt suit like Nerd explained, her links looks useful and i think is the correct answer you are looking for.
   Have a lovely day =)

   I would have to agree with what Nerd said. :)
   
   Lengha = long skirt
   Gharara = Wide legged trousers to give the illusion of a skirt
