Akshay does the role of a transgender and wears a saree for a significant part of the film. By recalling his experience of wearing a saree in the early days of shoots, ”During the initial days of the shoot, my saree would often unwrap by itself while shooting. I wasn’t able to move properly while being in a saree, forget about dancing and fighting in it. Thanks to my costume designer who would come to my rescue in every break to rearrange the plaits and balance the pallu.
” By talking further, he added, ”Hats off to all women who manage so well. If you all want to appreciate the process, everybody should try it once on yourself, you will realise how difficult it is.” Akshay added, ”In one word, saree is the most graceful outfit in the world. Wearing a saree has been one of a kind experience for me. Frankly speaking, donning a saree is very difficult”.
