Veteran Bollywood actor Dimple Kapadia was fully geared to promote her movie, dressed just as her character in the movie in saris, but the star and the costume department were in a fix when her outfits went missing. Dimple will launch the trailer of What The Fish in Mumbai on Tuesday.
Dimple, who has worn very peculiar saris in the movie, was excited to don her character’s clothes for her promo appearance, but the missing costumes threw a wrench into her plans. Director Gurmeet Singh wasn’t keen to go ahead with the promo launch of the movie without Dimple in the same look as her character from the film. The stylist was then flown down to the south specially to source authentic traditional saris for the duration of the promotion, said a source.
Confirming the same, Singh said in a statement: “Dimple ji is ecstatic to promote the movie and hence, has been very particular about her look during these upcoming appearances.”
The story of What The Fish revolves around a protagonist who has to leave town and needs someone to take care of her money plant and fish. She then decides to leave the house in the care of her niece. The narrative is about the comedic turn of events which take place in her absence.
