Mirror Mirror on the wall, who's hottest of them all? With Lakme India Fashion Week almost reaching its climax, Sidhi Chadha polled models and designers to find out who was setting the ramp on fire this year.
Here's what they had to say:
Tarun Tahiliani
From what I have been hearing till now, only one name comes to mind - Deepika Padukone. I haven't had a chance to catch hold of her yet but everyone is really raving about her looks. I have to check her out now!
Payal Jain
Jesse Randhawa and Nina Manuel. Jesse carries the clothes with so much ease and comfort. Nina has a great body, she oozes sensuality.
Rohit Gandhi
I would vote for Nina Manuel. Firstly, she is awesome on ramp, she's so sensual but more than that she's so comfortable backstage with the designers and the clothes. I think it's very important for any model to have a good rapport backstage too.
Indrani Dasgupta
Nina Manuel for sure among females. There is no competition! She's too hot and very sexy. And Upen in male models.
Nayonika Chatterjee
Nayantara (her daughter)! No, on a serious note...this year some of the new faces have made their debut in LIFW and among them Deepika Paadukone has calibre. She is so comfortable on the ramp that it doesn't look like she's a newcomer. I would rate her the hottest model.

Deepika Padukone
Nayonika Chatterjee and Upen Patel. Nayonika is the best model the Indian ramp has seen so far.
Mehar Bhasin
I like Sapna Kumar, Nina (Manuel) and Upen Patel.
Nina Manuel
I think all of us are "hottest models." We are doing the same amount of work so why should there be any competition? We work as a team and don't like pulling each other down!
