"If you remember, costume trial for Inshallah, I had told you to wear this white saree and then you kept asking but why am I wearing this white saree. Then we brought you out and we put a red bindi on you. Then we tied the hair. By then you had realised that this is not something for Inshallah. I was doing the Gangubai look test in my mind when I saw that photograph. I said, ``What is this transformation?" Sanjay Leela Bhansali said.
