Bollywood fashion extravaganza in Mauritius

An Indian origin businessman and philanthropist here will stage a mammoth Bollywood fashion week in Mauritius in May.

Sharan Haricharan has invited top Bollywood stars for the show, the proceeds of which will be donated to child welfare in Mauritius, according to the Post newspaper.

“The idea behind the fundraiser came after I facilitated the involvement of my friend, fashion guru Haroun Hansrot, in the latest Durban-shoot of the film ‘Race’, which starred Saif Ali Khan,” Haricharan said.

“We were pleased when Sameera Reddy agreed to get involved. She will donate her services free of charge for the cause. We tried to get Bipasha Basu involved as well, but she said her assignments over the next few months would be gruelling,” the businessman said.

Apart from Bollywood stars, Haricharan and Hansrot also plan to rope in two models from KwaZulu Natal and a few talents from Mauritius itself.

The event is slated to take place in May at the plush seaside resort of Sugar Beach.
