Mumbai: Bollywood actors Ranveer Singh and Sidharth Malhotra were slammed by fashion Influencer Ishita Mangal for disrespecting designers during fashion shows.
Taking to her Instagram handle, the fashion influencer shared a video compilation of the actors in which they were seen seeking blessings and indulging in candid conversations in the middle of their ramp walks.
In one of the video clips, Ranveer was spotted planting a kiss on Deepika Padukone’s cheeks during his ramp walk.
In another video, Sidharth was seen stopping midway during his ramp walk to greet Zeenat Aman.
Lashing out at the actors, Ishita said, “I am officially done with Indian actors using fashion shows as family reunions. What’s with the blessing tour mid-ramp walk? Touching feet, meet and greet, casual chit chats. I am confused. Are we at a sangeet or a fashion show? Respect and acknowledgement are great but maybe showcase culture or values before or after the event,” she said.
“Designers pay big money for these events. Stylists, choreographers, models, media people – they are all running on a tight timeline. Most of them have another show to run to after it. This isn’t just about disrespecting the designer’s vision, it is about wasting everyone’s time, including the audience,” she added.
“We love our actors and the stardom that they have built but the only star on a runway show is a designer. You wouldn’t randomly start touching people’s feet in the middle of a movie scene, right? Well, this is a one-take shot. So, stop this attention-seeking behaviour,” she concluded.
