The model-turned-actress, who is making her Bollywood debut with director Muzaffar Ali’s period-love story, opened the show with her dance performance and later walked the ramp last night. “I was happy to dance for him. I love dancing so it wasn’t a tedious work.
He does the combination of making something exquisite and high end but still make it flowing and easy to wear. I had a fabulous time. Even the crowd was enjoying. I was wearing a beautiful anarkali. I am honoured to be a part of the show,” she said. She sauntered down the ramp, looking elegant and oozing grace with both her performance and the outfit.
Even though the designer earlier said he did not encourage Bollywood’s presence on the ramp, Varma was all praise for Pernia, whom he knows for 15 years now. The designer said he was waiting for an opportunity like this to showcase her talent. ”I know about her ability. I have known her as a dancer since 15 years.
I had always wondered if somehow I could weave her talent and dance into my show. And this was the perfect opportunity.” Titled “Couture- A Love Story”, Varma’s collection was based on the art and literature of Persia and the poetry of Omar Khayyam, who was hailed as one of the greatest Persian poets.
Rather than taking inspiration from Perisan influences during the Mughal Empire, the designer looked at its culture that formed a part of the Ottoman Empire (Turkish Empire). The famous Topkapi palace of Turkey, which was the one of the major residency of the Ottoman sultans, was recreated on the stage as models sashayed down the ramp.
“It’s my first finale in 15 years. I haven’t done any finale for any fashion week in many years. When you do a finale at an event like this, not only me but everybody puts their energy together,” Varma said.
