Kareena Kapoor Khan captivated the audience at the 25th-anniversary celebration of Lakme Fashion Week, demonstrating once again why she stands out on the runway. Reflecting on her journey, she reminisced about her iconic days from the size-zero phase to proudly embracing her pregnancy with Taimur.
During the event, Kareena expressed warmly, “I do everything with my heart. So, whether it was walking the ramp when I was size-zero or walking the ramp with Taimur in my belly, or whether it was, you know, size 10 or 12, that never really mattered. What mattered was my heart….my heart was on stage…was with each and every designer that I walked for was also in my confidence. Thank you Lakme for having me..I enjoyed my time.”
Kareena Kapoor has been the face of Lakme for several years, walking for esteemed designers at the Fashion Week.
