The showstoppers at the Azeem Khan fashion show at a suburban hotel on Saturday night were none of the models who took the ramp with the designer’s new couture line, but former Miss World Yuktaa Mookhey and, yes, her Prince Charming.
Yukta, whose run in Bollywood after she won the beauty pageant in 1999 was not as spectacular as Aishwarya Rai’s, has been pretty low on the social circuit after her last release, Mem-sahab — Lost In A Mirage bombed at the box office this June. But she sprang a surprise when she showed up for the fashion show dressed in a stunning navy blue gown and with a handsome man on her arm.
Inquiries revealed that her suave and dashing escort was Prince Tuli, 36, a financial analyst from New York whose family owns a business empire in central India that runs into hotels and resorts, schools and colleges, malls and motors. Not much else is known of him, not even whether Prince Tuli belongs to any of the erstwhile royal families of the country or Prince is just his name.
But Yuktaa, 29, and he are close friends on a popular social networking site. They were inseparable on Saturday night and when BT asked if she and Prince Tuli were a couple, the actress and model smiled and said, “I don’t want to talk about it now.” But rumours are that the two will be getting married soon and it is believed that the girl from Mulund will be settling down in Delhi after she ties the knot.
