Fashion designer Manish Malhotra is set to design costumes for actors Kareena Kapoor and Hrithik Roshan in Karan Malhotra's period drama "Shuddhi".

"Manish Malhotra is designing the costumes of Hrithik and Kareena for 'Shuddhi'. Since it's a period drama a lot of detailing will be done in terms of costumes, " Karan Malhotra told.

The film is apparently set in period of 1920s and 1960s and the director says a lot of research work is going on.

"A lot of research work is going on but I can't reveal the exact eras in which the film will be shot. It's too early for that. Basically, it's a love story, " said Karan, who last directed 2012 released film "Agneepath".

From the sexy sarees to the daring dresses, Manish has previously styled Bollywood actresses including Karisma Kapoor, Kajol, Kareena Kapoor and Urmila Matondkar.
