Shah will unveil his latest Chitr-Sena line and Taapsee is more than happy to be his showstopper.

"I love Gaurang's work and admire his weaves. I was anxiously waiting for a chance to walk for him. I follow his collections and I have done lot of photoshoots for his line of handwoven saris and outfits. I love his innovations in lehenga and anarkali which are outstanding," Taapsee said in a statement.

Shah's collections give her a "royal feeling".

"I also wore lot of his saris. This will be a really special moment for me as I am walking for someone who I admire. The way he conducts his shows also speaks volumes about his idea of fashion," she added.

This will be the first time Taapsee will walk the ramp for the designer.
