Priyanka Chopra on 'Barfi' Set |
Anurag Basu earlier shared a still from the film showing Priyanka and co-star Ranbir Kapoor in which she sported a similar look.
Priyanka, 29, started shoorting for the last schedule of the film in Mumbai soon after her return to India from abroad after promoting her recent release Teri Meri Kahaani.
On June 30 she tweeted:
Barfi Priyanka Chopra |
She plays an autistic girl named Jhilmil in the film and Ranbir Kapoor plays Barfi, a street smart but deaf and mute character.
South actress Ileana D;Cruz is the film's narrator.
Priyanka's is a deglam role; she wears matronly skirts and blouses and sports curly short hair. Not much has been revealed about her character and even the upcoming film trailers will keep her character in wraps until close to the film's release.
"Priyanka plays a very special character in Barfi, so we want to keep her mystery intact. In the first trailer, Barfi — played by Ranbir — will be unveiled. We don't plan to reveal Priyanka until the film releases," says Shikha Kapur, executive director, marketing, Studios, Disney UTV.
Back in February Priyanka told Zoom that she found her role in the film challenging, despite the film light hearted.
"For me it was a very difficult film. And if you have heard rumors that I was in my own space, it was probably true because it takes a lot time to become autistic. Kind of convince myself that I can do it, make it look as real as possible. So yes it has been one of my most difficult films," she said.
Barfi bows in theaters September 14. The theatrical trailer will be launched with Bol Bachchan on July 6.
