Mumbai:
Deepika
Padukone
has
shed
her
urban
look
for
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali's
upcoming
film
Ram
Leela
and
designer
Anju
Modi,
who
has
dressed
the
actress
in
the
movie,
says
it
was
a
dream
come
true
to
work
with
her.
In
the
first
look
of
the
movie
poster,
which
released
recently,
shows
Deepika
sporting
a
lehenga,
which
weighs
30
kgs
and
has
a
50
metre
'ghera'.
Anju
says
she
went
out
of
her
way
to
bring
the
intricacies
of
Kutch
to
Deepika's
wardrobe
in
Ram
Leela
to
meet
director
Bhansali's
standards.
"Sanjay
and
I
were
very
clear
about
the
look
we
wanted
to
give
Deepika.
So,
while
the
lehengas
had
to
reflect
the
royal
lineage
of
the
Kutch
region,
they
also
had
to
have
a
very
contemporary
feel
as
Ram
Leela
is
not
a
period
drama," Anju
said.
The
designer
is
also
all
praise
for
the
27-year-old
actress,
saying,
"No
one
else
could
have
carried
it
as
gracefully
as
she
does.
She
is
slim-waisted,
tall
and
looks
gorgeous
in
this
avatar.
Dressing
her
up
in
this
style
has
been
a
dream
come
true."
A
story
of
love
in
violent
times,
Eros
International
and
Bhansali
Productions'
Ram
Leela
also
stars
Ranveer
Singh.
It
is
scheduled
to
release
on
November
29.
