Eesha's different role in RGV's film Shabri

With six releases lined up this year, actor Eesha Koppikar is excited about her look in her forthcoming film Shabri with Ram Gopal Varma. At the launch of a new store, Studio 7, in Mumbai on Thursday, Eesha spoke about her latest de-glam look.

“It’s a completely de-glam look. She's a girl from the rural basti-jhoparpatti. It’s actually more than de-glam, it’s yuck and ugly. People didn't recognise me and said 'How can you look ugly' and I take that as a compliment. It’s very difficult to make me look ugly. But still there was a special pan stick that my make-up man created by mixing two three colours, and it looked like chocolate mousse,” she said.

Shabri directed by Lalit Marathe portrays Eesha as the first woman gangster.

"We don't really like looking dirty, ugly and non-presentable. I remember my van said Shabri, it didn't say Eesha Koppikar. A lot of people there within the vicinity saw me getting out of the make up van getting onto the sets and getting back to the van said, ‘who's this ugly jharoovali, who’s the heroine of the film?’ But that's half the battle won because you are in the character when you get into the skin of the character, half the battle is won.”

After donning gray shades in Don, Eesha hopes the essence of her negative role is received well in Shabri too.
