Fifteen years is a very long time in a models career. Its even more commendable when you stay right on top of your league for more than a decade. On both counts,Jesse Randhawa is a winner. In fact,one look at the svelte model and her roster on the ramp,and you know Jesses still got a long way to go. I am glad you feel that way, one hears the soft-spoken and extremely down to earth Jesse put across. In the city to formally launch Fashionista,a fashion school in Manimajra,Randhawa looked her fashionable best dressed in slender jeans and boots to match. I love coming to Chandigarh,be it for work or otherwise. I feel honoured that Fashionista chose me to be here for the launch, pointed out Randhawa who recently tied the knot with Indias leading dance instructor to Bollywood stars,Sandip Soparkar. When they say a new bride glows,they must mean this for Randhawa looked radiant on an otherwise dull,grey day. Nothings changed after marriage…just my residence, she smiles to say.
For the unaware,Soparkar and Randhawa met at the formers dance studio when Jesse signed up for classes in Salsa. Along the way she found love! I love Salsa too, she pouts and goes on to joke,I think I will continue to dance forever,even when I am old,frail and have a walking stick in my hand.
