Pria Kataria Puri unleashed an arrow from a tribal highland trailing sexy tribal goddesses with towering headwear. Joining the winter heights were Lalit Jalan's men.

Pria Kataria Puri unleashed an arrow from a tribal highland trailing sexy tribal goddesses with towering headwear. Joining the chilly winter heights were Lalit Jalan's textured ensembles with men in snowfall faces. Neelam Saxena in the same show dusted off the snow and went to Rio with an Italian dandy look. Anju Modi's white cotton feminine separates went down well with the audience.
