BEAUTIFUL Model Friendships

You might have an image in your head that top models compete rigorously with each other and jostle for a place in the spotlight. Or worse, have catfights over being a designer's favourite muse.

We have no idea if these scenes could be true. But what we do know about are the wonderful friendships.

Like Deepti Gujral, who is fondly known as Deepu by fellow model Hemangi Parte, was the bridesmaid at bestie Candice Pinto's wedding -- scroll through Deepti's Instagram timeline and you'll realise that these girls are literally joined at the hip.

Desi supermodels think of each other as family. As Deepti would like to quote: m'They say there are friends, there is family, and there are friends that become family.'

That's the beauty of a lasting bond and on the occasion of Friendship Day, we present you pics of models and their BFFs.

This trio has been in the modelling biz for years and they often come together to take memorable selfies after almost every show.
