Janhvi Kapoor, Bollywood star and daughter of the legendary Sridevi, was the celebrity showstopper at Rahul Mishra’s show during Lakmé Fashion Week 2025. She wore a stunning black Bandhani gown and definitely caught everyone’s attention as she walked the ramp. But things took an unexpected turn when the model walking right behind her, Tamanna Katoch, ended up stealing the spotlight.
Tamanna Katoch, dressed in a black body-hugging gown with a ruffled slit, looked absolutely amazing as she strutted down the runway after Janhvi. The moment she posted a video of the show on social media, the internet couldn’t stop talking about it. The video began with Tamanna walking solo, but in the second part, she appeared right behind Janhvi. Though Tamanna’s caption focused on the designer and makeup, netizens quickly compared the two walks, and their comments got pretty savage.
One comment stood out: “Line second se shuru hoti hai,” meaning Tamanna, walking behind Janhvi, was the real star of the show. Other comments were even harsher, with one saying, “Let’s pretend there was no Janhvi,” ignoring her completely. Another comment read, “Your walk is fire, teach some to that little Kapoor,” clearly criticizing Janhvi’s walk. Some praised Tamanna even more, with comments like, “You overshadowed Janhvi Kapoor,” and “Your walk was on fire!”
People also pointed out the difference between celebrities and professional models. One comment said, “There’s a difference between a celebrity and a model ❤️🔥🙌,” while another added, “You did it better than that nepo kid.” The most savage remark said, “You slayed, girl. We only noticed you, and nepotism failed badly in front of you! 👏🔥”
The age-old debate about models vs celebrities as showstoppers continues in the fashion world. Celebrities are often chosen to bring in the crowd, but models are the true professionals who know how to present the designer’s work perfectly. This time, the internet clearly favored Tamanna, and many agreed that when it comes to the runway, “model power” won the day.
