Actor Lara Dutta will be seen essaying the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the upcoming film 'Bellbottom', and on Thursday, she gave us a sneak peek into her terrific transformation.

Taking to her Instagram account, Lara posted a video in which we can see her make-up team changing her look with the help of prosthetics.

"Never had I imagined portraying a personality this pivotal and when I saw how this transformation translated on the screen, everything felt surreal and worth it. Can't wait for y'all to watch my performance in #BellBottom," she captioned the post.
