Actor Prashantt Guptha seems to be
designer Rohit Verma’s muse, with the designer choosing the actor for
representing his Royal India collection.
Rohit Verma had
seen Prashant Guptha’s looks from his films Issaq, Identity Card and 6-5=2.
“Upon meeting me, it struck him that I could be most apt to model for his
upcoming Royal India collection.”
Prashant Guptha is currently the
Brand Ambassador for the San Francisco Global Movie Festival and this
assignment is another addition to his overcrowded cap.
Says Rohit Verma, “my current
collection draws its inspiration from Royal India where you are a prince in all
your splendour, yet have a western yet a regal Indian outfit. I went in for
Prashantt Guptha, as besides having an interesting face, he was fresh and
unexposed to fashion.
Says Prashantt Guptha, “I have been
told to do ramp and fashion numerous times. Yet, I never felt I was adequate
for it. Rohit Verma motivated me, gave me a regal look, and when I saw his
collection I could simply not refuse… It moved me.”
But it was not as easy as it sounds.
The designer wanted the look to be perfect and for that, Prashantt had to get
lean. “Rohit Verma needed me to have a certain lean yet regal look for
the shoot. And that required me to lose about 10 kgs. Prashantt Guptha,
enamoured by the designer range of Rohit Verma, did the needful and the result
is here for you to see.
