Shamita's art of mixing and matching

Did you know that Shamita Shetty has acquired a degree in fashion designing? The actress, before embarking on films full time, had planned to pursue a career as a fashion designer. She had even completed a degree course in fashion designing at Mumbai's SNDT College and was a kind of student, for whom the college faculty was proud of.

A class mate revealed, ''Shamita used to give her 100% to the projects she undertook as a fashion designer. She was brilliant at mixing and matching fabrics and would have definitely been an asset to the fashion world.''

Fabrics of varied hues , printed designs and playing with ideas and giving it a creative expression was something Shamita always felt passionately about. But guess fate had something else in store for her. A film offer from the industry's best, Yash Raj Films, was too tempting to turn down.

Guess the rest is history.
