Fashion designer Neeta Lulla has conceptualised the look for each of the characters in superstar Rajinikanth starrer "Kochadaiiyaan - The Legend".
The movie, directed by Rajinikanth's daughter Soundarya Rajnikanth Ashwin, is India's first photorealistic performance capture film.
"Neeta has done an outstanding job on the costumes for 'Kochadaiiyaan'. The details in the armour and the weaponized look of the costumes really creates an impact. The photorealistic performance capture technology used in the film is extremely advanced and the work done on the costumes really shines through," Soundarya said.
Rajinikanth, 62, stars as a legendary mythological character in the film.
Lulla and her team immersed in extensive research to achieve the perfect look and deliver intricate luminosity to each of the garments designed for Kochadaiiyaan.
"It feels totally wonderful to be a part of 'Kochadaiiyaan'. I am proud to be associated with Rajni Sir's venture which is directed by his daughter Soundarya. Being a part of 'Kochadaiiyaan' is definitely a milestone in my career. I think, the project is larger than life for two aspects- one being Rajni sir and the other being that it is a photo realistic motion capture film format that is a first of its kind.
"Its visual grandiosity conceived by Soundarya makes the scale of this project one of the biggest I have worked on," the designer said.
