Kareena Kapoor to don 130 dresses in Heroine


Kareena Kapoor’s upcoming film will be remembered for the number of dresses she would be seen in. Bebo will don as many as 130 different costumes. It would probably be the first time that any leading lady will wear such a wide range of apparel. It has never been done before at least in the Hindi film industry.
The film Heroine is directed by the acclaimed director Madhur Bhandarkar. Apart from the number of dresses, there is another thing that is also in the news, which is the cost of these dresses. How could these many dresses come at a price that would not take one’s attention? The estimated cost of these clothing is estimated to be around Rs 1.2 crores.Manish Malhotra has designed the costumes.
When it comes to talking about dresses, it takes us back to the days of the film Devdas, in which Madhuri Dixit had worn salwar kameez that weighed as heavy as 16 kg. It was so heavy that Madhuri had to cut down the weight as she could not dance with the heavy load. It was not the weight that had brought it in the news. It cost a humongous amount as well.
