'Bunty Aur Babli 2': Sharvari Wagh gushes about recreating Priyanka Chopra's iconic look

Actor Sharvari Wagh is all set to make her Bollywood debut in the upcoming crime comedy Bunty Aur Babli 2. Marking the directorial debut of Varun V. Sharma, the movie features a star-studded cast with the likes of Saif Ali Khan, Rani Mukerji, Pankaj Tripathi, Siddhant Chaturvedi and more. Serving as a spiritual sequel to the 2005 film Bunty Aur Babli, the movie is set to release on November 19 this year. 

If the trailer of the movie was not enough to tingle netizens' excitement, the newcomer actor's first look from the movie was enough to hype them up. The 27-year-old grabbed headlines with her golden bikini look from the movie which reminded netizens of another iconic actor, Priyanka Chopra from the 2008 blockbuster film Dostana. Being compared to the leading lady of Bollywood was nothing short of an honour to Sharvari as she gushed about the shoot day on the film set.

She also recalled her shoot day and how thrilled she was to shoot for the sequence. She added, ''So on the day of the shoot I was thrilled & confident to pull this off.

While talking to ANI, the actor enthused over the opportunity of making her Bollywood debut in the movie by stating, ''I have been extremely fortunate to get a dream debut in Bunty Aur Babli 2. You don't often get projects in which you play so many roles. I was determined to perform each one of them convincingly because the audience needs to be invested in the disguise so that they enjoy the con thoroughly. I had the best time getting into these looks/avatars like a complete shifter and just putting my best foot forward.''

Written and directed by debutant Varun V. Sharma, the film will hit the theatres on November 19.
