5 questions with Tabish Oza: 'Item songs are a fun listen, boring to watch'

We have so much in common with the runway regular; his fridge is also stocked with Nutella!

Tabish Oza has come a long way, since he started his career back in 2011. A prominent presence on the ramp, it's clear that the chiseled model is no longer a rookie.

As he continues on his upward trajectory, we ask Oza some questions to gain some insight about the man himself; after all, we want to know what goes on in that pretty head of his!

1. Use three words to describe yourself

Tabesh Oza: Honest, hardworking and steadfast.

2. Do you ever feel overshadowed by the female models in the industry?

TO: Depends on how you see things, it's not exactly a black and white world. As an individual, I feel you could be in a crowd and stand out or you could be shooting a solo shot and get lost in the set props. It's all bout the quality of work that you do.

Men have started to take more interest in grooming and fashion so I think male models will benefit from it eventually. It's a process.

3. Mehwish Hayat or Mahira Khan?

TO: Mahira Khan

4. Item songs – yay or nay?

TO: They are fun to listen to sometimes, but more often than not, boring to watch.

5. If I came to your home and looked inside the refrigerator, what would I find?

TO: Nutella, chocolates and fruit.

Fun fact: the top model also shared that he abhors reading and that it makes him sleepy and if he were stranded on an island, he'd like to bring a DJ with him. I think we've guessed which clique he'd fit into if we were still in high school!

We're excited to see Oza walk the ramp at the next fashion week and wish him the heartiest wishes for future upcoming endeavours.
