Eesha opts for Cavalli over Indian designers  Eesha Koppikar, who is back after judging the Miss Universe Pageant 2008 in Vietnam is on
different trip these days. "Being the first Bollywood artiste to judge the pageant has been a
unique experience. It was fabulous but I felt sad that Miss India could not make it to the
finals. I interacted with Donald Trump Jr, Miss Universe 2006 Jennifer Hawkins, hair stylist
Louis Licar and Spice Girl Mel B. I was told about judging this pageant at the very last
minute and I almost missed the flight.
It was a matter of fate and destiny and I have to thank my manager Simone Sheffield, who
organised all this for me. Many thought I was there as a contestant. Manish Malhotra and Anita
Dongre arranged their garments for me at the last minute but unfortunately could not wear them
as Roberto Cavalli had already arranged something for me there. I put on a lot of weight
because I threw a lot of weight around there," laughs Eesha.
The actress, who has gone in for a spelling change in her name from Isha to Eesha feels the
change is conducive to her career. "It has helped me to some extent. Yet there is a lot of
hardwork and dedication that has helped me in my work. My parent's blessings count too," says
Eesha. |
