<span class=normal>Rewind half a decade or so to Yash Chopras super-hit, Dil Toh Pagal Hai. It all started with that, where designer wears became the trend for films. And with Raja Hindustani, the whole look became important. While DTPH put fitness-inspired sports looks on the fashion radar, the commercially successful, Raja Hindustani, had young moviegoers begging for the straight hair look that Karisma sported. A look that, may we add, has somehow remained in the audiences psyche even today. Yes, Karisma has been iconic in changing the look in Hindi films, says designer, Manish Malhotra. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p> <br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>While the young actor endeavored to bring fashion realism to Bollywood, there have been roles that she completely enjoyed portraying. For me, it was a gradual growth as an actor and my style growth and growth as a woman all happened together. In Dulhan Hum Le Jayenge, I liked my clothes, in Haseena Maan Jaayegi, I had worn baggy jeans, which was unheard of for an actress in those days. Her favourite look was in Fiza and Zubeidaa, which were perhaps also her finest performances, meriting Best Actress Awards. In Zubeidaa, my look was very 50s glamorous and authentic. I wore real jewelry from Gem Palace and some of the outfits were genuine antique. While, in Fiza, I was in Lucknowi outfits off the road and no make-up. <BR><BR> <br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Courtesy: <a href=https://verveonline.com/ target=_blank>Verveonline</a></span>
