After sashay­ing down the ramp in beach wear for designer duo Hemant-Nandita at the ongo­ing Wills Lifestyle India Fash­ion Week (WIFW), Bol­ly­wood actress Minis­sha Lamba yearns for a beach vacation.

“I’m dying to go on a vaca­tion — some place where I can dive into the blue ocean water and sun­bathe. I have had a lot of com­mit­ments lately so it was hard to take out time for a hol­i­day,” Minis­sha said.

The actress, who was the show­stop­per for designer duo Hemant-Nandita, says she went into the hol­i­day mood as soon as she slipped into the design­ers’ chic resort wear col­lec­tion, inspired by “a vaca­tion in Ibiza”.

“After wear­ing this dress, I really think I want to go to Ibiza with­out all the stress of work,” said Minis­sha, who walked the ramp con­fi­dently in a colour­ful, flowy dress with promi­nent work on the neckline.

“I really like what Hemant and Nan­dita have done because no one in India used to treat beach wear and resort wear as a legit­i­mate cou­ture line. And their line offers every­thing — from swim­suits to flat­ter­ing gowns with work for a classy din­ner at a resort,” she added.

After her glam­orous avatar in “Kid­nap”, Minis­sha is now wait­ing for the release of Shyam Benegal’s com­edy “Well Done Abba”, in which she stars along­side Boman Irani and Sam­mir Dattani.

“It is a polit­i­cal satire based in a vil­lage — it’s a very dif­fer­ent movie. It has its mes­sage to it but it isn’t preachy or moral­is­tic,” said the actress who made her debut with off beat film “Yahaan”.

The film is inspired by two short sto­ries — “Nar­saiyyan Ki Bavdi” by Jee­lani Bano and “Phulwa Ka Pul” by San­jeev, and is pro­duced by Reliance BIG Pic­tures. It revolves around a Mumbai-based dri­ver who takes a month’s leave to find a groom for his teenage daughter.

Asked if the movie is a con­scious effort to exper­i­ment with the kind of cin­ema she has been used to, Minis­sha said: “There’s no con­scious effort. I have always loved what­ever I have done.”

Minis­sha was also seen in “Bachna Ae Haseeno” with Ran­bir Kapoor.
