Priyanka Chopra may be Bollywood's ultimate fashionista, but she has, of late, been hobnobbing with Asha Parekh, to gather dope on her dressing style in the 1960s.
Not just that, she also sent fashion designer Manish Malhotra to visit Parekh to understand her glam look of old better.
All this is being done for her untitled film with Shahid Kapoor that will be directed by Kunal Kohli.
The film is set in the 1960s and Chopra's character of an actress is based on Parekh, a veteran actress of that period.
Chopra has already met Parekh once, for what is being called 'preliminary talks' and plans to visit her for a lengthy discussion later. In the meantime, she sent Malhotra, her designer for the film, to Parekh's residence.
The fashion icon of yesteryears, who set major trends with her look in films like Teesri Manzil, Jab Pyar Kisi Se Hota Hai, Caravan, Pyar Ka Mausam and Aan Milo Sajna, said, "Yes, I met Priyanka at a function. She wanted to know about my clothes and makeup from the 1960s. She said she would meet me later to discuss her look in a film."
