Priyanka Chopra will play two distinct Avatar for Zanjeer Remake

By Hpbolly

Actress and former Miss World Priyanka Chopra is known for being bold and classy about her roles. Her character in 'Barfi' won her many awards and appreciation too. In her upcoming flick, the remake of 'Zanjeer', she has again something exciting to deliver.

Latest news is tha Ms. Chopra will be showcasing two distinct looks in this movie. Designer Pria Kataria Puri who is making her debut into the industry with this film is giving Priyanka the required look!

“In the first half of ‘Zanjeer’ when she’s abroad, Priyanka would be dressed as a woman entrepreneur should be dressed. You see, in today’s times, a working woman from India doesn't stand out at the airport. She looks like any chic well-dressed woman from any part of the world,” said Puri.

 “Later, when Priyanka’s character comes to India, she gets more colorful in her sartorial expression. You would notice that even when an Indian girl in Indiadresses in western clothes, there is a dash of Indianness in her clothes. She may wear shorts, but it would be orange in color. Priyanka’s clothes would reflect her changed geo-political mindset,” she added.

“Like Priyanka’s Mala in ‘Zanjeer’, I am an NRI working out of a foreign country. So I instinctively understand the clothes that Priyanka should wear. I often see actresses in our clothes looking wow. But they don’t seem to be dressed in character."

On working with director Apoorva Lakhia, the designer exclaims,

“I insisted on a bound script which I never got. ‘Zanjeer’ is the first film I’ve said yes to. One of the reasons is the director Apoorva Lakhia, who’ a friend. The other reason is Priyanka Chopra, who according to me, is the most international actress from Bollywood."

Talking about Priyanka's vivid personality,

“She can carry off any look. She understands clothes, and she knows so much about fabric! I was amazed by her knowledge and her ability to put forward her thoughts on how her character must dress. We were instantly on the same page when we met.”

Puri especially loved Lakhia's brief on Priyanka's character. She further adds,

"He was the first director who gave me a hard-bound script. Earlier I refused offers because I didn't get a script. For me it's very important to know the character's graph to be able to dress her properly. Because of the script, I got to know Priyanka's character Mala thoroughly before I decided on her look."

Well, we are charged up to see the actress in two avatars!
