With Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan and many more celebrities having their own labels and clothing line, so Anushka, when asked about the big rush to enter the fashion industry ‘rat-race’, said it was the more, the merrier.
“I don’t it is a rat-race as such, I think the more the merrier. It is a great thing that you have fashion available to you, like this. More brands, more designs, more styles, more choice and if I can enable and add value to that, I think that is a great thing. I don’t see it in negative at all; this reflects my aesthetics, my sense of style,” she said.
About challenges of turning designer for a fashion brand, she said: “Challenges, you face in everything you do, but for me, this is something that helps me focus. When I am facing a challenge, I feel more focused, more driven, more involved and (it is) something I enjoy doing.”
Anushka describes her clothing line Nush as “accessible high street fashion”. She says she wanted to create “everyday clothes for everyday events” and that it is “built around Indian needs and sensibilities”.
The line caters to all sizes from small to XXL.
