In a stunning display of style and altruism, actors Lakshmi Manchu, Shruti Haasan, Shriya Saran and Harshvardhan Rane took centre stage, sashaying down the ramp with grace and purpose at the 'Teach for Change' fundraiser fashion show.

This extravagant event, known for its blend of glamour and social impact saw a host of actors walking the ramp.

Shruti led the finale as the showstopper in a black outfit, and Shriya Saran made an impactful presence in a body hugging lavender-pink embellished gown.
Talking about her outfit, Lakshmi said: "I loved my outfit. It brought out my inner diva, it's a very chic out comfortable and every year that I walk down the ramp I see the millions of faces in the audience who come down every year to support me."
