Sale in India is just a technique of fooling people and making money: Tarun Khanna

Handsome model and actor Tarun Khanna, who rose to fame with a controversial Pepsi advertisement but that proved to be lucky for him. The ad was followed by numerous television serials like Bhabhi, Chandragupta Maurya, Dhak Dhakk in Dubai and few Bollywood films too. Currently seen as Balram in the epic mythological drama Mahabharat on Star Plus, Tarun takes time out to speak to Tellychakkar.com and give some tips about something which he knows best for our Lifestyle section. Fashion is… Wearing something which makes one feel good when he/she looks in the mirror. Also, it is very important to wear clothes in which one is comfortable. Eccentric clothes makes one look like an out and out disaster. Who chooses your clothes? Sometimes my wife helps me out but most of the time it is me who chooses my own clothes. Do you wear accessories? I do not like watches, but have a fetish for belts, shoes and ties. Do you follow any brands? Not really. I look for a good fit. Favourite shopping destination? I love shopping in Bangkok and Dubai. All the international brands are available there. We get these brands in India too, but when it comes to variety we lag behind. Your most expensive buy? I have lots of suits. Being a professional model, I have my designers who have gifted me quite a lot of suits but I have also bought a few of them that I must mention were quite expensive (laughs). Clothes you are comfortable in? I am most comfortable wearing nothing (winks). However, since I cannot roam around naked in public, I am comfortable wearing slim cut suits. Must have in your wallet? Credit cards, some liquid cash and my driving license are very important. Favourite perfume? I like wearing 212 Sexy by Carolina Herrera, Issey Miyake and David Off. Describe sale in one word? Sale in India is just a technique of fooling people and making money. They announce the sale when the stock is old and out of trend while sale in USA and Dubai are ultimate shopping experience. Currently your wardrobe is overflowing with? I do not have any place to store my jeans in my house and have lost a count of the T-shirts too. I also have jackets of almost all colors stuffed in my closet. You have the hardest time getting dressed for? I take a lot of time to get ready for my character as Balram because here I have to wear a wig. Otherwise, being a model I can dress up in a span of just 30 seconds. We have been taught to dress up that way. Any fashion disaster you have come across recently? Yes. I would not like to mention the name but quite recently I saw someone wearing an orange sherwani with blue stripes; it looked awful. If you had to choose a fashion era; which period would it be? Would not choose the era gone by; so I choose this generation.
