will be seen in a sensuous yet sophisticated
look, reveals designer Pria Kataria Puri .
Often seen sporting the desi look in films
such as Dev D, Paan Singh Tomar and the Sahib Biwi Aur Gangster
series, the film has many firsts for Mahie.
"We coloured her hair, she had never
coloured her hair. She had never worn
heels, but we got custom heels made for
her that were 7-8 inches high to give her
that diva look. We made her wear
everything from a swimsuit to a see through kaftan to sexy tight dresses," said
Pria.
"But we have presented her in a very
classy, sophisticated way. She has been
shown as a very sensuous, sexy woman
who follows today's fashion...We have
shown her as a diva," she added.
In the original Zanjeer, Bindu featured as Mona, the don's moll, while
Ajit played the
villain and Amitabh Bachchan was the
protagonist. Veteran actor Pran also
featured in the film as a loyal friend.
Pria said it was great styling Mahie, as she
came with a clean slate and gave her free
hand to experiment with her look the way
she wanted.
"It was very exciting for me because Mahie
has not been presented that way and I
prefer people who come with a blank
canvas, so that I can draw what I want to.
If they are good actors, they take it like a
sponge," said the designer, who has also styled the film's leading
actress Priyanka
Chopra.
Directed by Apurva Lakhia, Zanjeer 2 also features actors Ram Charan
Teja, Prakash
Raj and Atul Kulkarni. The film is slated for a September 6
release.
