Anushka Sharma has gone completely de-glam in 'Sui Dhaaga' and isn't wearing any make-up in the film
Anushka Sharma plays a simple, down to earth, sincere yet ambitious embroiderer from a small-town in India in YRF's upcoming entertainer 'Sui Dhaaga – Made in India'. Anushka’s character in the film becomes self-reliant by using her talent of embroidering and she makes a name for herself in her community along with her husband, Mauji (Varun Dhawan), a tailor.
The actress' look in this much awaited film has been extremely praised and the costume director, Darshan Jalan, revealed how he studied rural housewives to finalise Mamta’s look on Anushka.
“Anushka's character and look brief was very simple which (to be honest) makes things more complex because it must be relatable. The character is that of a housewife living on a lower middle class income in city outskirts! It was clear from the get go that Anushka would wear synthetic saree(s) primarily because they are cheap but most importantly it's washes easily and dries quickly.” says Darshan.
He added, “In my opinion, achieving the day to day look of a regular person is more challenging because there is no room for error. We come across these people every day and I studied them thoroughly before finalising every minute detail. I have vivid memories of a lady coming to our house on Saturdays (we called her Shanivaar Wali), to collect donation for the local temple. She always wore synthetic saree in same colour tones, always covered her head - which is not only a tradition but a shield from heat and cold! Memories like these become reference points!”
Speaking about her new look, Anushka said, “I love Mamta’s look! It’s so simple and so different from how audiences have seen me in movies. I’m thankful to the audiences who have loved Mamta after seeing the trailer and full marks to Darshan and my make-up artist Clover Wootton for making Mamta raw, real and relatable. From the pallu over my head, to the dhaaga that I wear around my neck to the decision to go completely without make-up, all this has created this character. The best part was that it took flat 20 minutes to get into Mamta’s look. Mamta will always be a very, very special role in my filmography.”
Watch what went into getting Mamta's look right -
Varun and Anushka have been paired for the first time and are definitely the most-awaited on-screen jodis of 2018. 'Sui Dhaaga - Made in India' is set to release on September 28 this year, just before Gandhi Jayanti.
Sui Dhaaga brings together National Award winning producer-director combo of Maneesh Sharma and Sharat Katariya after their blockbuster 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha'. The film is a special salute to the inherent entrepreneurial spirit that the youth of India and our local artisans have.
