As far as her getup is concerned, the actress will wear a bindi in the shape of a trishul as well as heavy and bold neckpieces for her role.

According to the channel officials, Dolly is the perfect choice for the role - given the over-the-top aura that has been built around her thanks to "Bigg Boss 4".
