In order to feel like a character you've to look like her specially when she's true to life which she is in many of my films. In Laga Chunri... it was very important for me to look completely different as the innocent carefree girl in Varanasi and then this prostitute in Mumbai."

My director Pradeep Sarkar, my hair stylist and my costume designer and I got together and spent hours creating contrasting looks for me as 'Badki' in Varanasi and Natasha in Laga Chunri...It's so important to have a team that make your character look convincing."
