Isha Sheds Her Glamorous Look For 'Darling'!

- Abid           Let us know what you think about this story

Isha Koppikar burst into Bollywood with the hit item number 'Khallas' in Ram Gopal Varma's 'Company'. In her latest movie ' Darling', which is once again directed by Ram Gopal Varma(incidentaly), she has gone to the other end of the spectrum with a typical middle class Indian housewife look in sarees (sans all gaudy make-up). The look was put together by Komal Shahani and required a lot of thought as Isha has always had a glamorous image.

However, Komal found Isha to be completely in tune with what she wanted. "Isha was totally in her character and I found her very easy to mould." The character's look required an absolutely homely image which is why the sarees and 'bindi'. And the entire look has been well co-ordinated to give an authentic Maharashtrian get up. Komal says, "Keeping Isha's complexion in mind, I gave her colours like aubergine, scarlet red and other bright colours. Her character is soft in the movie which is contrasted with vibrant coloured clothes. Ive tried to maintain the typical housewife look but with a hint of style."

In fact, so impressed was the designer with Isha's comfort level that she vouches Isha can carry Indian clothes much better.

Well, knowing how 'Khallas' set a precendent in Bollywood and made item numbers the 'in thing', lets hope 'Darling' also works the same magic for Isha and Bollywood once again!
