I was told to suck cheeks in, pucker lips, look angry
Manish Malhotra
At: 9 pm"We love you!" shrieks were heard from some of the last rows when Shahrukh Khan walked the ramp for Manish Malhotra's Knight Riders show. The star walked the ramp in black dhoti pyjamas worn under a black vest, his arm safe in specially designed gold sling. "He (Manish) has designed a lot of things, but this is the first time the man's made an arm sling!" he said, and the crowd guffawed at his wit, and possibly his ability to turn everything about him, SRK.
As the line of black-and-gold sporty-cum-party garments (in sync with Kolkotta Knight Riders' uniforms) terminated, SRK decided to be a rather "honest" showstopper and expressed how he doesn't look good, can't walk but still had the privilege of walking the ramp. "Lubna (Adams) told me to suck my cheeks in, pucker my lips and then look really angry; that's what all good models do they all look like fish deprived of sex."
The sweatpants/shorts and hoodies may not have stolen the show, but SRK managed to up the ante on the glam radar by "felicitating" models-turned-actors (like good friend Arjun) among others. By the end of it, we weren't sure what we were laughing at the plight of the fashion industry, that Bollywood rules everywhere, or both.
