I am not here to become a fashion icon: Athiya

Actor Athiya Shetty may have made her presence felt on the <g data-gr-id="20">runway</g> but she says she does not see herself as the next fashionista of Bollywood.

The 22-year-old Hero actor, who walked the ramp for ace designer duo Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna on the fourth day of Amazon India Fashion Week Spring/Summer 16, said she prefers being subtle and simple when it comes to choosing her look.

“I am not here to become a fashion icon. Whatever I wear comes naturally to me. I don’t want to make a statement when it comes to fashion. I am very simple and minimalistic when it comes to dressing up in my personal life,” <g data-gr-id="19">Athiya</g> told a <g data-gr-id="21">media</g> person.

“Walking the ramp was part of growing up for me. I obviously wanted to be a part of this. I always liked dressing up. For <g data-gr-id="24">me</g> it is a dream come true and I feel very excited when I have to walk the ramp. I am a big fan of Sabyasachi and I would definitely love to walk the ramp for him some day,” she said.
