The 31-year-old is set to sashay down the Indian ramp for the first time in Shane and Falguni Peacock's creations during the ongoing India Resort Fashion Week Saturday.

"I love their (Shane and Falguni Peacock) designs and this is the reason why I am walking for them. Since my childhood, I was accompanied by my mom to several fashion weeks and that is when I started getting used to fashion. I love everything that is beautiful and this is the reason why I love India for its vivacious and bright colours and designs," she told IANS.

Apart from catwalk, Hilton is looking forward to her performance Saturday and says she has a bag full of surprises for her Indian fans. She has been brought to India by E-sense Entertainment.

"I am playing electronic, pop and some fun music that I have remixed myself. I am excited to perform in the country that has huge music lovers. Obviously there are some surprises in store but for that you have to wait and watch," she said.

Hilton also took some time out for shopping.

"I went to spice market and bought some spices. I love Indian food. I also bought trinkets from the local market here for my family and they are just beautiful," she said.
