His ramp shows featuring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, had all made headlines earlier this year. One where his close friend Kareena Kapoor Khan and Kartik Aaryan showcased his designs in Dubai was also a part of the news. However, the ace-designer was recently slammed for choosing B-town stars to walk his ramp show
