NOTEWORTHY CAMEOS
Those who are well versed with the showbiz and fashion world will notice some noteworthy cameos from both the film and fashion fraternity. Stylist Tanya Ghavri made for a blink-and-miss shot in the first few minutes of episode 1…
While Kiara Advani’s self-obsessed version of herself tickled our funny bones. And for sure the delectable Masaba leg show number!
Farah Khan in a spectacled, bossy verison of herself seems like a spectacular treat for our eyes.
Even though we couldn’t relate to Shibani Dandekar’s artsy references, her sound style statement made a strong case.
Blurring the lines between reel and real, this one is a highly recommend homegrown series binge, keeping your inner fashionista satiated. Can’t wait for its season 2 already!
