Veere Di Wedding: When Kareena Kapoor Khan and Sonam Kapoor turned stylists for Sumeet Vyas

Permanent Roommates' star Sumeet Vyas sure has a lot going on this year, with his first major commercial Bollywood film, Veere Di Wedding’s release on June 1. The film sees him romancing the gorgeous Kareena Kapoor Khan. This is also the first time when he has danced in front of the camera. Being the only male lead in the film, Sumeet sure had the Veeres looking out for him, right from getting styling tips from Sonam and Rhea Kapoor to being given pointers for their sangeet scene by Kareena.

While shooting for the ‘Bhangra Ta Sajda’, Sumeet rehearsed a good three days prior to the actual shoot in order to perfect the choreography, but was in for a surprise when he realized he wasn’t doing it as perfectly as he had thought. “Shashanka (the director) told Kareena to act uncomfortable and completely not into the whole thing, the way I was. I couldn’t believe it. I thought I was killing it!” remarked the talented actor.  

Apart from receiving a lot of support on set, Sumeet also received some tips from the two fashionistas of Bollywood, Sonam and Rhea Kapoor, who co-own a clothing brand.

When Sumeet began shooting for the film, he had a complete wardrobe assigned to him for his character Rishabh. Whenever the producers,  stylists and Sonam got together to discuss everyone's look, he ensured to stick around so that he learn something from the stylish sister duo. Even though most of it was for his character in the film, the English Vinglish actor couldn't help but apply a few of those suggestions into his own wardrobe.

“I have personally never paid so much attention to what I wear and how I wear clothes and what difference do those little touches make to make those regular clothes look fashionable. I got the first taste of it when we sent my haircut photos to Rhea for her opinion. I thought I was looking rather neat in that hairstyle but she commented back saying it is ‘generic’ and that did make a lot of sense to me. Which is why, you see me in the look I have in the film. A lot of credit also goes to my stylist in the film, Abhilasha Devnani. She’s exceptionally talented”, he signed off
