Talking to a daily, fashion designer Niharika Khan, who is handling Vidya Balan outfits in ‘Dirty Picture’, the actress said, “I am working as fast as I can. There is bound to be a lot of skin show where her legs and stomach will be bare. The role has a graph where initially she will be wearing her usual clothes, later she becomes a star and then the downfall. So it`s an array of costumes I am preparing covering all three phases.”

When enquired the producer of the film, Ekta Kapoor said, “Well, there are two sizes that Vidya will be seen in. One is the thinner one, the other one is where she will have to put on weight.”

“Vidya Balan needs to get bolder in her performance and physicality. Bolder in body and in mind. This is not kid stuff we are doing. My film takes a naked look at all we`ve been whispering about. When Vidya Balan asked me for the clothes, earlier than usual, I really wasn`t surprised. My job is to ease her into the character. And this is just step one,” said Luthria.
