Aahana Kumra feels her role as Priyanka Gandhi in The Accidental Prime Minister will help the film industry look at her differently

Aahana Kumra
For her role as Priyanka Gandhi in The Accidental Prime Minister, Aahana sported short hair and a simplistic look -- diametrically different from what the audience had seen so far of her in a show like "Yudh" or a film like "Lipstick Under My Burkha". She feels the role will help the film industry look at her differently.
"People often look at you (me) as a girl next door, and not sometimes as a character. And I think what is interesting is that because there was a different look, and a different hairdo, I think now they will be open to giving me a different get-up altogether. "I don't know why do they (filmmakers) get scared to make women look different. We don't even live in a country where everyone looks the same," Aahana told IANS here.
