Zeenat Aman turns showstopper at Lakme Fashion Week at 71; fans call her 'legend': Watch

Veteran actor Zeenat Aman turned showstopper for fashion designer Shahin Mannan at the Lakme Fashion Week in Mumbai and won hearts. Videos and pictures of her from the event are being widely shared on social media. Fans are praising her for walking the ramp confidently and flaunting her grey hair.

Zeenat walked the ramp dressed in a red and black abstract-printed blazer top, paired with black pants. She paired it with black sunglasses.

Talking about the show, Zeenat told News18, ‘I started my career as a model, and over the years have walked on many runways. It’s exciting to be doing so again, while representing older women. Some would say I’ve come full circle, and that fits in beautifully with Shahin’s concept. I enjoy Shahin’s quirky designs, and had faith that she would create a striking look for me.’

Zeenat started her career as a model. She gained recognition when she participated in beauty pageants such as Femina Miss and Miss Asia Pacific International in 1970. She ventured into films in the same year.

Some of her best works are ‘Yaadon Ki Baaraat’ (1973), ‘Hum Kisise Kum Naheen’ (1977), ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram’ (1978), ‘Don’ (1978), ‘Qurbani’ (1980), ‘Dostana’ (1980), ‘Laawaris’ (1981), and ‘Hum Se Hai Zamana’ (1983).

Zeenat Aman was last seen in a cameo in Ashutosh Gowariker's period film ‘Panipat’ (2019). She will soon make her OTT debut with ‘Showsttopper’.
