Bollywood Adda

Setting the stage on fire, the cute Minissha Lamba walked the ramp for the designer duo Shane and Falguni Peacock on the second day at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW) in New Delhi. Championing the anti-breast cancer campaign on the fashion platform, the petite actress gets candid in a talk with Ashok Kumar of Indianexpress.com.

How does it feel to walk the ramp for the cause of anti-breast cancer campaign?

It feels great because it can (breast cancer) happen to anyone. We always think that it will happen to someone else and does not give much attention to it.

My walking on the ramp for the cause of the anti-breast cancer campaign just goes on to show that the biggest priority for us is ourselves. A woman’s essence in her physical form are her breasts, which are her distinguishing feature. And, what better place to do such a campaign, to make people aware of the hazards of this disease (breast cancer).

How in your opinion could events like fashion shows help fight breast cancer?
Fashion events like Wills India Fashion Week are very popular among the people. So, if such platforms are used to highlight the cause of the breast cancer, no doubt more people will become aware of it. We should not forget that such shows reach out to everyone.

What do you like more, acting or modelling? Which one of the two is easier?

Of course I like acting more than modelling. Acting is dearer to my heart. Both the trades need different types of orientation but acting before the camera is a difficult task compared to walking on the ramp.

It is not difficult to walk down the ramp.

Kidnap did not do well at the box office. Do you regret being part of it now? Have you learnt any lessons from it?

No, I don’t regret being part of Kidnap at all. As an actor you give your best to the character you play for the movie. There is no point giving a second thought to the decision taken earlier and regretting over it in retrospect.

Coming to your query, if I have learned anything from the movie, I would say anything and everything that happens in life to you is a learning experience. I personally feel Kidnap was not a bad film.
