Congratulations to Delhi’s aspiring model, Mahir Pandhi who has won the title of Top Model India, which provides an opportunity to India’s aspiring models to convert their dream into reality. The finale was aired on Colors Infinity on Sunday.
The show gave a chance to 12 aspiring models to transform into supermodels under the guidance of judges Lisa Haydon, Atul Kasbekar, Anaita Shroff Adajania and mentor Shibani Dandekar.
Talking about his journey, Mahir said, “There wasn’t any money involved but I’ve bagged an opportunity with Bling Entertainment who will be managing me. Besides this, the victory perk, in general, was to be able to survive the entire season and learn so much from all the judges and our mentor. I’ve learnt a lot and that too from the best in the business. The platform and my journey on it, has been impeccable and that also in the true sense, has been a great perk for me.”
Mahir revealed the toughest task for him was in the first episode was when he had to walk in a swimsuit. “I had recently gotten out of the hospital after suffering from dengue. As my body was not in best shape, I feared that I might get some negative comments.”
He would love to continue as a model. “As they say, the hub is Mumbai so eventually I would have to move to the city. Hopefully, that should happen soon.”
Mahir on being asked about his alternative career, he told media that, “I think modelling will definitely work out but in case it does not, I will shift my attention completely towards acting because I am a trained actor and that’s what I have been doing.”
“The love and support I received during ‘Top Model India’ has definitely made me realise that modelling has some great scope for me to keep diving into. However, I will always have acting as my back-up as that is one of the key areas of interests for me as well. I started (acting) when I was in the third grade. I got into All India Radio as a drama artist. Theatre has played a huge role in my life. Also, I do a lot of dubbing,” Mahir added.
