Model-turned-actress Deepika Padukone will walk the ramp for designer duo Shantanu-Nikhil at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week. But the actress who has been the face of many magazine covers says she does not follow any fashion trends.
Deepika says her favourite designer is Manish Malhotra, who is popular with most Bollywood icons.
"Manish always goes out of his way for me and does a good job. He also did my first film Om Shanti Om," she said.
The actress who recently crowned a winner for a model hunt says that although initially it was difficult for her, she has finally made it for herself.
"During my days of modelling, I never got any such opportunity or platform to showcase my talent. But god has been kind to me," she says with her signature dimpled smile.
