With Bandra Fort as the setting, performance by live musicians and actress Kareena Kapoor Khan’s return on the ramp just 46 days after giving birth to her son, the finale show of the Lakme Fashion Week presented by ace designer Anita Dongre was a night to remember.
Kareena, who is the brand ambassador for Lakme was the muse for Dongre’s Summer/Resort collection which was inspired by liquid gold/argan oil, the main component of the new range of lipsticks by the beauty company.
The 36-year-old actress, who welcomed her son Taimur Ali Khan Pataudi in December last year, says she never felt hesitant when she was approached to be show stopper for the finale.
“I am walking the ramp just 46 days after giving birth to my son. I don’t think that it was a big deal to do. I was happy when I was approached with the idea,” Kareena said.
