Bollywood actress Athiya Shetty says celebrities do have the pressure to look good always, but it's fine if they want to stay normal at times.
Athiya, who made her Hindi film debut last year with "Hero," said fans should understand that celebrities are also normal people like them.
"There is a pressure to look good always and look your best. But I think it is important to feel normal sometimes. Because people look upto us and they should also know we are normal. So, it is ok to have an off day. It is ok for celebrities to not look good always," Athiya told PTI.
The 23-year-old actress, who is the face of Maybelline New York, is now looking forward to walking the ramp at Amazon India Fashion Week (AIFW) Autumn-Winter 2016 for Namrata Joshipura'.
Talking about her look at the fashion week, Athiya said it will be classy.
"I am really excited that I am walking for Namrata. I love her clothes. They are extremely young, vivacious and very New York. The look is a mixture of being both classy and sexy. I try and be my self and be confident when I am on ramp. I enjoy doing it."
The newbie has mostly received positive reviews from the fashion police, but she feels making mistakes in your look improves your style sense.
"Fashion is an extension of you personality. It's ok to make mistakes in fashion because that is what it is all about. One should make mistakes and learn from the same, then it is fun. One has to be comfortable and dress according to the body type," she added.
