'Everyone wants to look like Alia or Deepika'

When asked if clients come to him with requests, Nomi, who is known for his modern-meets-traditional designs, said, "Everyone comes with a lot of hope and requests. But to make their hope a reality also you need something to start with. Everyone wants to look like Alia Bhatt or Deepika Padukone. But they do not have the body structure or the lifestyle or the audience to achieve the desired look."

When asked what he does with such clients, the designer joked, “Unka hum Mahesh Bhatt bana sakte hain (I can make them look like Alia's father, filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt).”
