Pooja Bedi's 11-year-daughter Aaliya walked the ramp for designer Pallavi Jaipur at the Lakme Fashion Week in Mumbai.

An excited Pooja Bedi said, "It was her first solo experience and memorable one too. Aaliya was dressed as a Rajasthani princess. Such memories stay with you for life."

Pooja said that Aaliya had walked the ramp with her for a charity show earlier. "She was too small then. But that moment stays with her even now."

Pooja clarified that there was no pressure on Aaliya to walk the ramp. "It was her decision! I asked her if she was comfortable with the idea of walking the ramp and she said yes."

Pooja rubbished stories that it was not right to expose her daughter to the fashion world at such tender age. "I look upon Aaliya walking the ramp as a cute memorable experience. It is not a hardcore career defining step for her."
