competition as the sizzling beauties battle it out to win a place on the
coveted calendar.

plays anchor and mentor to the contestants on the show. Each episode is
a contest where the winner has endless opportunities – from being
featured as the cover girl of a renowned fashion magazine to becoming
the face of a brand’s digital campaign or even walking the ramp for
prominent fashion designers! The 13 episode series will see industry
stalwarts such as Atul Kasbekar, Milind Soman, Pallavi Sharda, Aditi Rao Hydari, Suneet Verma, Rina Dhaka, Shivan & Narresh, Gaurav Gupta groom the girls and judge their stunning performances.

avatar, the show will feature young and promising models. Kingfisher
Supermodels is a show with oomph, glamour and fantasy. We hope to reach
