After Kareena Kapoor Khan walked the ramp for Vikram Phadnis in Doha earlier this year, Qatar will now witness another Bollywood superstar in action. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will turn showstopper for close friend and long-time collaborator Manish Malhotra's fashion show at Fashion Weekend International 2018 on October 5. Thrilled that Rai will be presenting his latest collection, the ace designer tells mid-day that he has created an "indo-Western festive ensemble" for his muse.

Revealing that they both share a deep love for ivory, it is not surprising that the ensemble is being imagined in their favourite hue. "Aishwarya will be wearing something festive. It will be an Indo-western ensemble with a long train, exclusively designed for her. It will mostly be an ivory creation as that is our favourite colour. We may even opt for a different colour; we are still exploring possibilities," says Malhotra.
