“The minute I was told about what kind of look I'm supposed to carry off in a major part of Ta Ra Rum Pum, I knew I had to get seriously slim. If I had put on
those short skirts looking the way I did earlier, I'd have looked pretty cracked."While Rani toned her physique for the skirts, she made her trainer work overtime.
"I made my trainer Satya's life a living hell. I don't think he has ever had a more demanding client."
Besides the slim and svelte look, Rani also had to make sure the clothes went with the transitions in the character's life.
"See, at first Saif Ali Khan and I play collegians. Then I gradually go on to being the mother of two growing kids. So I had to have a specific before-and-after look."
"My dress designer Surily Goel was driven up the wall by my demands. See, today the character's look is very important. Not just the heroines, even the heroes devote a lot of time to getting the look right.
"Earlier, I'd constantly have fights about my clothes with Manish Malhotra and Sabyasachi Mukherjee. Now it was Surily's turn to get the brunt of my exacting nature. All three designers feel I'm one of the most quarrelsome heroines they've worked with."
