Having featured on the cover of special issue of 'Femina', India's oldest and premier women's magazine, numero uno Tollwood heroine Rituparna Sngupta says the journal is something which excites every 'femme'.
Rituparna, who believes in traditional look in dress code during Puja days, told PTI she wore a Greek-influenced longish dress, having an interesting mix of different cottons which looked elegant and beautiful on a woman.
"Apart from the whitish, georgette look on the cover, I featured as model in Femina inside pages of the festival Bengali edition where I also sported the flowing 'anarkali' gown-tpe complemented by the 'pyjama', the whole embellishment supported by 'hard bind cotton fabrics.
"Happy to say as a representative from Bengali film industry, posing for their first festival issue was nothing but a beautiful and sensitive connection," the 'Muktodhara' actor said.
Rituparna, who is the brand ambassador for a Mumbai Durga Puja, said she looked forward to traditional 'sindoor khela' on the Dashami morning with red-bordered saree.
"From dhakai to cotton tangail, I will entirely go by sarees on the four days. During morning and evening, while offering puspanjali on 'Mahastami' day. Puja is the time when a woman may follow traditional dress code and sport golden ornaments.
"Puja is not the time for anything loud, in terms of make-up, accessories or dresses for me," the actor, having debuted in 'Swet Pathorer Thala' and spanning a career of over two decades, said.
Rituparna said she had two films lines up for relese this year - Parapar by Rituparna Ghosh's disciple director of Memories In March fame Sanjay Nag and Pati Parameswar by Jayasree.
