"It
is
my
India
runway
debut
and
it
was
daunting
for
me.
I
have
probably
walked
the
ramp
three
times
and
this
is
the
fourth
time.
But
it
was
an
absolute
pleasure
to
walk
with
Deepika
for
Manish,"
Fawad
told
reporters.
"I
love
'The
Persian
Story'.
This
is
a
very
comfortable
sherwani
and
every
groom
should
wear
it
this
winter
season."
Deepika,
on
the
other
hand,
closed
the
show
wearing
a
red
off-shoulder
blouse
teamed
with
a
matching
red
ornate,
embroidered
lehenga.
"I
started
my
career
as
a
model
and
I
can
say
that
I
have
never
been
so
tired
because
this
is
the
heaviest.
I
was
actually
gasping
for
breath," told
Deepika.
Malhotra,
whose
eponymous
label
has
completed
11
years,
seemed
to
be
in
awe
of
his
stunning
showstoppers
and
thanked
both
Deepika
and
Fawad
for
taking
time
out
of
their
busy
schedules
to
help
him
showcase
his
latest
couture
line.
"I
thank
Fawad
for
taking
time
out
of
his
Ae
Dil
Hai
Mushkil
shoot
to
come
here.
I
have
known
Deepika
as
a
model
and
also
personally.
I
was
there
when
she
first
faced
the
camera
in
her
debut
film.
I
am
very
happy
to
have
her
here
today,"
the
ace
designer
said.
