Indeed, so good was the make-up that Priyanka’a dad failed to recognise his daughter.
In Vishal Bhardwaj’s forthcoming flick ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’, Priyanka plays different stages of a women’s life – from eighteen years to sixty-five years. In order to get Priyanka’s look right, make-up artists have been flown down all the way from Australia.
Talking to Indian news daily on Priyanka’s looks in ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’ and her gag on her father, a source said, “Priyanka had been missing her parents. So, she asked them to come for a small visit to spend sometime with her. Her parents decided to go and meet her on the sets of her film. On that particular day, Priyanka was shooting a scene with Naseeruddin Shah in which she had played a 65-year-old woman. The make-up on the actress was so unusual that her father failed to recognise her.â€Â
When contacted Priyanka’s father, Dr Chopra confirmed the story and said, “I was stunned to see Priyanka. I could not recognise her. I actually went up very close to her to ensure she is the same Priyanka. The make-up artist had done such a fabulous job with her that she looked much older than her mother. Right from her face to her wrinkled hands and feet, she had been transformed into an old woman.â€Â
“My daughter was a natural and even spoke like a typical 65-year-old,†Dr Chopra said
