Bollywood
actress
Kangana
Ranaut
will
walk
the
ramp
for
veteran
designer
Anju
Modi
at
the
forthcoming
edition
of
Shree
Raj
Mahal
Jewellers
India
Couture
Week
2014.
The
Bollywood
actress
and
fashion
icon
has
been
chosen
for
her
old
world
charm.
The
six-day
event,
starting
July
15,
will
be
held
at
the
Taj
Palace
Hotel
here
and
Modi
is
going
to
showcase
on
day
two.
"Kangana
Ranaut
is
a
fashion
icon,
who
has
transformed
herself
with
every
character
she
plays
on
screen,
and
every
look
she
dresses
in
off
screen.
She
is
one
of
the
few
actors
who
carries
herself
effortlessly
and
with
utmost
grace," the
designer
told.
The
designer
believes
Kangana
is
befitting
as
the
showstopper
for
her
line's
theme.
"The
underlying
sense
of
old
world
charm
that
engulfs
Kangana
made
her
the
perfect
choice
for
me,
especially
with
the
theme
of
my
collection
Manikarnika,
being
about
reincarnation
and
a
revisitation
of
our
cultural
and
design
heritage.
"She
personifies
the
woman
of
today,
which
is
a
central
thought
that
translates
through
our
efforts
to
contemporise
ancient
techniques.
I'm
most
excited
to
see
her
close
my
show
this
year
at
the
India
Couture
Week," said
Modi.
