Meet the costume stylist of Rajinikanth, Sonakshi and Anushka in Lingaa

Costume stylist Nikhaar Dhawan, who designed costumes for Rajinikanth, Sonakshi Sinha and Anushka Shetty, says KS Ravikumar insisted to maintain simplicity throughout the film instead of over-the-top clothes. “I have already worked with Ravi Kumar and I know how efficient he is. With everybody working at that pace, I never felt any extra pressure. Also, Rajinikanth makes it easy for everybody. He can put on anything and just transform it,” says Nikhaar.

Nikhaar says Rajinikanth’s comfort was her firts priority. However, Nikhaar denies report that Rajinikanth anxious to romance Anushka and Sonakshi in duets. “Once the hair and make-up was done, he didn’t need anything more to make him look the character. Of course, there was a bit of shuffling around that was done. But he has such a peculiar style of his own. Once the styling was done, he could romance the ladies as though there was no age gap,” she says.
