Deepika Padukone recently launched a clothing line with Van Heusen and the brand wanted to have a fashion show for her collection. The brand was keen to have top models walking the ramp for the show. But, Deepika had a different plan.

She suggested her fans should get the opportunity to walk the ramp. 

10 female fans of Deepika from across the country have been selected to walk the ramp. It was a random pick and her fans from different cities will be all flown in. Deepika would spend time, interact and groom them.

Deepika has worked around her schedule; she is shooting at night to ensure that she can personally groom these girls. They will undergo rehearsals, make up, grooming, trials and everything else before they hit the ramp. As, it was Deepika’s idea, she has taken the full responsibility to groom the girls, who would be walking the ramp for the very first time.

Deepika says, “I thought it would be interesting to pick girls who identify with the way I dress. We haven’t selected them on the basis of their looks, height or whether they are experienced models. It was a random pick from the entries we had. I will try to make it as memorable and special for them. I will spend time with them, chat and groom them so that they go back with great memories.

“I have always been grateful to my fans and, in whatever little way, I have always tried to give back,” the actress added.
