Kartik Aaryan and Triptii Dimri, co-stars of the upcoming film Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, took to the ramp for renowned designer Manish Malhotra during the 'Namo Bharat: Walk for Courage, Walk for Service, and Walk for Heritage' event in Mumbai. The fashion show was held as part of the Seva Pakhwada, a fortnight of service commemorating Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 73rd birthday on September 17.
Malhotra unveiled his latest 'Evara' collection for 2024/25 during the event, which also featured cancer survivors like Sonali Bendre, Tahira Kashyap, Hina Khan, and real-life heroes of terror attacks, sharing the runway with professional models. "Last night was magical," Malhotra said in an Instagram post. "Alongside models were terror attack heroes and cancer survivors, honoring our textiles, craftsmen, heritage, and culture, celebrating Prime Minister @narendramodi ji’s legacy during #SevaPakhwada2024. Our showstoppers, @kartikaaryan and @triptiidimri, graced the ramp with love, making it a memorable and meaningful night."
The event served as a tribute to the resilience of India’s people and the beauty of the country's rich textile heritage. In a post on X, Malhotra also expressed his gratitude to the survivors who shared their inspiring stories. He said the show was a celebration of India’s spirit and legacy, marking the ongoing Seva Pakhwada, which will conclude on October 2, Mahatma Gandhi’s birth anniversary.
