Pics:Deepika's itsy bitsy skirts!
Deepika Padukone's skirt goes under the hammer online. Proceeds from the auction will benefit Salman Khan's NGO 'Being Human'.
Coincidentally, the film she wears the garment in, is Abhishek Bachchan starrer Dum Maaro Dum and AB Jr is married to Sallu's ex Aishwarya Rai.
Says a source, "Producer-director Rohan Sippy came up with the idea of auctioning the skirt online, through the film's official website with support being provided by a portal that auctions film memorabilia. The beneficiary was discussed and the choice was unanimous - Being Human. They feel it has been involved in some exceptional charity work."
Why Deepika's skirt? "While on a nationwide tour, the DMD team is discovering that while the track itself is being criticised, there is great excitement over the costume that Deepika wears in the music video. There is a huge demand for it," reveals the source.
Rohan Sippy says, "We are all surprised by the reaction to Deepika's look in the track. We decided to auction it for charity." Anushka Manchanda has crooned for the DMD title track Mit Jaaye Gham song that Pritam Chakraborthy composed.
Designer Anahita Shroff Adjania, who was responsible for Deepika's look in the film, says, "We wanted today's girl at a rave - barefoot, dancing on the sand, wearing anklets and a white dress. Deepika's blouse made of stretch lycra, looks like a choli and is cut in such a way that the back looks bare. The skirt moves like a subtle shimmer as there are pieces of metal sheeting in it along with chiffon and is attached to a leather band. Inside, she's wearing a tiny sequined hotpants cut very high. She has a tattoo and feathers in her hair to give her a beach-grunge look."
