The new face of Lakmé, 24-year-old Amrit Maghera may have bagged one of the most prestigious campaigns around but insists she is not the stereotypical calorie-obsessed model. Indeed, if she is to be believed, eating is extremely important in her life. “I love Italian, English roast, Indian, Mexican – everything! Food is a big thing in my family; it’s like a social thing and very much part of both my Punjabi and English roots.” Then again, Amrit isn’t just another pretty face. She was part of a girl band in England, where she tried her hand at writing and recording songs, performed with rapper Coolio and toured France and Italy. Dancing for Kanye West was the best gig she did till date, she says. Five months ago she decided to shift to Mumbai and started hosting shows for a lifestyle brand. Next thing, the Lakmé campaign happened. Bollywood beckons but she’s in no hurry. Right now, she’s just enjoying the adventure.
