Ayesha Takia to walk the ramp at IIFA

Ayesha Takia will walk the ramp for designer Vikram Phadnis at the ninth International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards, starting June 6 in Bangkok. "I will be there for Vikram Phadnis, who is a very close friend of mine. He has designed some exclusive collections and it will be great fun to be there for him. Besides, I am also excited for my film De Taali," said Ayesha.

"IIFA is a great platform where people from various parts of the world get to see a film. It opens the film to the whole world. I think this is an ideal platform to showcase and promote a film. I am very excited about it," she said. The three day IIFA weekend will start with the premiere of Ram Gopal Varma's Sarkar Raj.
