Both the actresses were supposed to inaugurate International Ethnic Week in Goa organised by Surat dreams, a Gujarat based textile market initiative. "We had a tie up with 'Gulaab Gang' movie.

Both the actresses are not our brand ambassadors but our fashion show was women centric and also was the movie. That's why we thought to steer them into promotion," she said.

The fashion event is organised at the backdrop of business to business (B2B) event currently organised to foster trade ties between India and other countries including Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, UAE, UK, Pakistan and Nepal. Maheshwari said that the fashion show is choreographed by Prasad Bidappa.
