Mumbai: Anurag Kashyap has recreated the 60’s era for Bombay Velvet. From the sets to the actors’ looks and costumes, everything has been designed and created from scratch.
Since the costumes belong to that period, they have been intricately designed and are very heavy. In fact, the entire casts’ costumes collectively weigh about 25,000 kg.
The makers of the film have decided to auction some of the costumes and donate the proceeds to charity.
About 1,200 to 1,500 of Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma’s costumes will be auctioned online next week.
So people can now own Ranbir and Anushka’s outfits.
A lot of detailing and effort has gone into each and every costume.
Numerous tailors were hired to stitch the outfits. In fact, besides the lead actors and supporting cast, even the junior artistes were wearing elaborate costumes.
There is great anticipation for Bombay Velvet that is slated to release on 15th May.
