First she played a glam girl in "Student of The Year", then donned the casual look in "Highway" and now in "2 States" Alia Bhatt says she will sport the Indian fusion look.
"My clothes in the film has been designed by Manish Malhotra, so I didn't have to think about it. Manish gets Indian fusion look so well," Alia told reporters at "2 States" trailer launch.
"The film moves to different cities, it has different looks, so we have played a lot with the look. Her look is simple yet modern," she added.
Alia is playing a Tamil girl in "2 States", a big screen adaptation of Chetan Bhagat's bestseller of the same name. Directed by Abhishek Varman, it features Arjun Kapoor as the male lead.
When asked whether her character will be compared to Deepika Padukone's in "Chennai Express", she said: "It's not the same at all. She is a modern girl and she speaks in Tamil only with her parents."
