Amrita Rao 'walks the ramp for charity'

Amrita Rao has taken part in a fashion show to raise funds for a children's charity.

IANS reports that the actress walked the ramp for designer Archana Kochhar’s show to raise money for the Nanhi Kali organisation.

The Vivah star said: "Being an actress I'm not professionally qualified to walk on the ramp but I have always enjoyed this experience. Though you are nervous as a turkey backstage, I think it’s the sheer idea of entering into another territory that excites me."

Kochha said of Rao's appearance at the event: "It was a pleasure having Amrita as the showstopper. She is a very dear friend and I love having her as my showstopper. I love the way she carries her clothes and also the aura."

The collection is reported to have been based on wedding themed designs, materials and colours.
