Niharika Bhasin Khan has yet again proved to be one of the most talented costume designers Bollywood has today - with her latest film, The Lunchbox.

The proud National-award winner reveals, that unlike other projects where she usually works with a team of five, this time the actress had just one assistant. She also states, that this has been her quickest decision to work in a film, as she finalized the project after barely reading three pages of the script.

As far as the film is concerned, Niharika has made all the actors look very real, looking into every minute detail. While Nimrat who played the housewife Ila, wore sober colors, Irrfan wore single toned formal, to portray a lone widower. To get Nawazuddin into the character of Shaikh, she dressed him up with lots of colors and checks.

After receiving awards for films like The Dirty Picture, Rock On, Kai Po Che and Delhi Belly, Niharika has yet again brought reality into the characters.

This romantic film which was screened at the Toronto International Film Festival and the Cannes Film Festival has been directed by Ritesh Batra.
