Dashing hero Vijay Deverakonda had a blast on Thursday as he got to launch the trailer of his upcoming pan-Indian flick ‘Liger’ in both Hyderabad and Mumbai. While the frenzied atmosphere dominated Hyderabad’s event, the discussion was all about the shiny silver slippers worn at the trailer launch in Mumbai. Even Ranveer Singh was in awe of Vijay’s style.
When asked about his much-talked about slippers, the ‘Arjun Reddy’ star’s stylish Harmann said, “Liger promotions has been something I was really really looking forward to. There were so many brands and designers constantly following up to construct/design looks for Vijay. I was all prepped to make it really top-notch chill until Vijay called me one day and said let’s be closest to the character and keep a very underdog look.”
Harmann is also the stylist for Allu Arjun. Adding to Vijay’s look in the Mumbai event, she told, “He specifically asked me for the basic chappals and initially I was a little hesitant but I also always trust Vijay’s dressing up ideas because I know he ends up making it the talk of the country. First round trials were with basic Tees and ill-fitted jeans which we were going to further age and give it a more raw look. Then we decided to custom make the Tees with some words that Vijay gave me, I reached out to the Rowdy team to work with me on them. So it was Vijay, team Rowdy wear and I that put ideas together and got it made in a super short time.”
She explained, “I was constantly nervous as the event was on a big scale, especially in Mumbai, and walking in wearing chappals worth Rs 199 was really brave of Vijay but I’m glad it was received with a lot of love.”
