New Delhi: Sometimes she is casual, sometimes dressed in chic gowns - actress Kalki Koechlin feels as a celebrity, her fashion sense is constantly under the scanner, and she rarely gets a chance to go wrong.
Kalki has quite a quirky sense of dressing. Asked if being called a `fashion icon` makes her feel pressurised to always be up to the mark, she said: "I realise that actually one can`t go wrong."
"Even if I wear kurta pyjama, they (fans) would be like, `Wow! Kalki is really chilled out`. When I wear gown they would be like, `Wow! Kalki is looking like a diva`. The limelight, the fame of a celebrity makes everything we do, significant," Kalki told IANS.
She feels picking nitty-gritties of celebrities` moves should not be people`s agenda.
"People are so impressed when celebrities do the stupidest things. If a celebrity opens a car door, fans are like `Wow! She opened car door by herself`. People should have better expectations," she added.
The 29-year-old spoke here Thursday on the sidelines of an event by French vodka manufacturer Grey Goose to announce the launch of a new property, Style du jour.
French word `Style du jour` means `style of today`. As part of the property, fashion magazines like Elle, Harper`s Bazaar and L`Officiel will give their own definition to fashion by styling a muse.
Kalki, who is of half French descent, spoke about the association with the brand.
"This is my first association with Grey Goose. It`s a very famous brand from France and I have a little bit of French connection. It`s about fashion which I anyway have a lot of relation with. I have quite an enigmatic style of fashion myself and it is a fun event, which has two things I enjoy the most: drinking and fashion."
Style du jour will be officially launched Nov 23.
