01:00I didn't get fashion shows because I wasn't that tall.
01:07But I did get those very sweet, nice boy, chingum, you know, fruity.
01:19In my initial stages, I remember when I was doing a photo shoot,
01:23like on a straw hat, stitching palm leaves.
01:26And I remember doing jungle outfits.
01:29And then there was this film where I had to make a mermaid outfit.
01:33I was so new.
01:34And so there have been just some strange, I remember, beads on the hair.
01:39But you'll never say no. You'll always try to work with it.
01:41I was too new that time, right? And then I came in with solutions of

03:45And he also thanked me on stage.
03:48And it was a beautiful moment for me.
03:56Actually, my work in the movies has always been that.
04:09So, I always understood who was wearing it and their capability of carrying the clothes.
04:13Right.
04:26I wanted this girl who's like out there, fashionable, you know.
04:55She's very into her clothes, very Emily in Paris at that time.
04:58And she's all about clothes and she's all about fashion and she's all about herself.
05:03And that's what she was, fun.
05:26Oh, you look like Kareena.
05:28You will definitely like Manish Malhotra.
