New Delhi, Oct 27 (IANS) How about designer clothes for prisoners? 'Not a bad idea,' says Bollywood actor Neil Nitin Mukesh who walked down the ramp Tuesday wearing a designer version of prison uniform along with handcuffs at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW) here.
The actor, who will be seen playing a prisoner in his forthcoming film 'Jail', was wearing designer Reynu Taandon creation -- he flaunted an off white short kurta, pyjama with minimal black embroidery and sequins that added a dash of glamour to the outfit.
When IANS asked Neil about how he felt about wearing designer prisoner clothes, he said: 'It's different but nice. It's not a bad idea to get Reynu to redesign the uniform for jail inmates.'
He was accompanied by co-stars Mugdha Godse and Manoj Bajpayee apart from director Madhur Bhandarkar -- they all walked the ramp to promote 'Jail'.
The actor pointed out how the designer had taken special care to add a bright yellow strip on the kurta's sleeve - a symbol on the jail uniform that denotes lifetime imprisonment for a convict.
'She (Reynu) has done authentic research to design just two garments for us. The yellow strip denotes life imprisonment in a real jail and our characters also go through it. She was the one who thought of making us wear handcuffs and gave us fake bruise marks through make-up to give the real feel,' said Neil.
