Designer Aki Narula has become quite famous for setting new bollywood trends, be it Rani’s kurtis in Bunty aur Bubly, Shahrukh’s knotted ties in Don or Kareena’s grunge look in Tashan. Now his recent-most offering being Bachna Ae Haseeno, has surely started showing an effect on the masses, with girls matching the hot trends of Bipasha and the guys imitating the cool looks of Ranbir. On asking Aki, he said, "It’s a great feeling to know that the audiences appreciate your work. I have always believed in keeping my creations trendy and hip, yet affordable.
