When Priyankas dad failed to recognise her!

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.”
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.”
“My daughter was a natural and even spoke like a typical 65-year-old,” Dr Chopra said
