A walk on the Lakme Fashion Week ramp turned out to be special for actress Tara Sharma, who became a showstopper for the first time on Saturday for designer Pia Pauro. She says the experience made her nervous.
"It's actually my debut. I have never been a showstopper," Sharma said. "I was a bit nervous. I find doing films a less scary experience. When you have to walk quietly, its quite scary."
Sharma wore a knee-length, golden dress.
The 35-year-old, who has featured in films like Om Jai Jagdish and Page 3, got married in 2007. She has two sons — Zen and Kai — and says motherhood makes a woman good at multi-tasking.
"For me, Pia is a friend and the other connection is that we both are mums and have two kids each. The fact is that women can multi-task."
Pauro's collection, titled Shamal, was high on tribal influence, with a lot of bling. Her clothes, in colours like electric blue, indigo, orange, pink and natural shades, were classy and stylish.
