Clover Wootton designed the uncanny look for Anushka Sharma in Pari, told about how she lied about the actor's role to Ranbir Kapoor. The look-designer is also working on the Dutt biopic with Ranbir. She decided to trick Ranbir into believing that his Ae Dil Hai Mushkil co-star was playing the role of a dog woman in her next movie Pari.
The look designer said; "Given that I'm working on The Sanjay Dutt biopic and Anushka being a very good friend of Ranbir, she had anticipated that he will be asking about Pari. Between us, we decided to plan a prank on him. We decided to fill him in with some lies and see how far the story goes...
"So when Ranbir asked me about Pari, I told him that Anushka is playing a dog woman - half human and half dog. I went on to tell him how much she is working towards getting into her character, and how she is observing Dude (her pet dog) to get it all right,"
Clover said, she and Anushka left Ranbir under the false impression, which resulted in her Sui Dhaaga co-star Varun Dhawan also fall prey to the prank.
She added, "After giving all that nonsense, we let Ranbir stew. After, four or five months, Anushka and I met again for Sui Dhaaga, which stars Varun Dhawan. And, the first thing he asked her was - 'I heard you are playing a dog in Pari, how's that going?'
"We still laugh our hearts out thinking about where it came from!"
Pari is produced by Clean slate Films and presented by KriArj Entertainment and Kyta Productions.
