Bollywood and fashion have more often than not gone hand in hand. Gone are the days when the models were looked down upon as they tried to make their entry into Bollywood. In fact today the thin line between the world of modeling and acting has more or less diminished as both continue to compliment each other.
Tuesday was one such day when it witnessed a starry kick start to Lakme Fashion week with number of big shot Bollywood personalities turning up for the event. Some of the designers whose work was on display were the usual suspects Manish Malhotra and Rocky S along with newcomer Surily Goyal amongst many others.
Some of the celebrities who also chose to walk on the ramp than just sit amongst the audiences were superstar Salman Khan and heartthrob John Abraham. While John Abraham looked every bit his deadly mix of cute'n'dashing best in a black three piece attire, the real applause came in with the entry of Salman Khan.
Dressed in a bright red shirt with a brown jacket and trousers in tow, his personality towered above everyone else near the stage as he walked the ramp confidently while wearing glares. His bald plate with a little dash of hair gave him a distinct touch as he had Maliaka Arora Khan and yesteryears' leading lady Neelam in tow.
Walking the ramp for new entrant in fashion world, Surily Goyal, he was cheered along by his 'Jaaneman' team of Akshay Kumar and Preity Zinta, who had come with their partners Twinkle Khanna and Ness Wadia respectively. Prolific Bollywood personality Karan Johar too accompanied the team while Amrita Arora, younger sister of Maliaka, too came all dressed up to lend her sis some support.
So involved was Salman in his stint on the ramp that he didn't forget to acknowledge the presence of Akshay and Preity as he did a small jig in front of them while approaching the audience's seating area.
Some other celebrities who attended the show were cricketer Md. Azharuddin accompanied by his still-glamorous wife Sangeeta Bijlani.
