Model-turned-Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone mentioned that she wanted to reserve a unique place for herself in the fashion industry but never by means of participating in any beauty pageants.
“I had set up an objective to become a model without winning any beauty pageants,” said Deepika, while talking to the choreographer-turned-director Farah Khan on the sets of her chat show, ‘Tere Mere Beach Mein’, which is being aired on Star Plus.
But when asked if she had any specific reasons for this, she did not mention any specific cause for this aversion to beauty pageants.
A lot of Indian actresses including Aishwarya Rai, Sushmita Sen, Celina Jaitley, Lara Dutta and Dia Mirza joined Bollywood after earning fame through national and international beauty pageants.
