Ethnic chic? excuse me... says Konkona

Konkona Sen Sharma got into a tiff with the production designer of Neeraj Pathak’s Right Yaaa Wrong, Ranjana Tiwari, over the choice of clothes her character wears in the film.
The bone of contention was that Ranjana felt that since Konkona has a very Indian body, she would look better in salwaar kameez, churidar kurtas and sarees. “But Konkona insisted on donning kurtas and pants,” says a source.“When she learnt that Ranjana wanted her to wear something that she didn’t want to wear, she called up Punit Agarwal (of Mukta Arts). Agarwal then called up Ranjana to ask why she was pressing the issue.”
When contacted, Ranjana confirmed that she would have preferred if Konkona had worn more Indian dresses in Right Yaaa Wrong. “I even suggested that Konkona could wear some nice sarees. She is a very pretty girl. She should not insist on Western clothes and follow the herd for no reason.” Despite repeated text messages, Konkona remained unavailable for comment.
