Actress Kangana Ranaut, who will be seen in a negative role in the upcoming "Krrish 3", today said that getting the look right for the character was a daunting task.
In the film, Kangana will be seen sporting a black colour body-suit designed by Gavin Miguel. The actress had to shed over 4 kgs to fit into the suit.
The team also designed heavy, structured, tail-like hairstyle, which had movement. They also had to get the shoes customised and without heels.
"Sporting such a look has been extremely challenging for me... Apart from being chic and flexible, we needed a look that wasn't attempted before in Bollywood. Though a lot of hard work went into it, it was all worth it since the feedback has been overwhelming," Kangana said in a statement here.
The all-rubber latex body suit took over 45 days to create, for which over 25 sketches were drawn up.
Designer Gavin worked closely with director Rakesh Roshan on the look and design of the outfit that was structured and customised to suit Kangana"s body.
It used to take two hours for Kangana and the team to get her body fixed in that costume.
"Krrish 3", a superhero film, will have Hrithik Roshan reprise the title role, while actor Vivek Oberoi and Kangana Ranaut will be seen in negative roles.
