One glance at the trailer of Shakuntala Devi and you are convinced that Vidya Balan and her styling team left no stone unturned to achieve a striking resemblance between the leading lady and her muse. "When you are functioning on a tight budget, you are bound to rummage through personal wardrobe to reflect the period on screen," says Niharika Bhasin, the stylist on the upcoming Amazon Prime Video release. Bhasin claims that she ransacked Balan and her mother's personal collection of sarees.
The Tumhari Sulu actor is showcased in five distinct looks in the trailer, all of which Balan credits to Bhasin. "There were tons of sarees to steal from Vidya and my mother's hand-me-downs. Old printed silks and georgettes are not in vogue, now. Despite the limited budget, I got some printed. I wanted specific colours to stay true to the period. The second-hand shopping helped us achieve the look we wanted," says the stylist.
