The item song - 'I Want Just You' -- from the Akshay Kumar-Sonakshi starrer seems to bear some similarity in terms of look and attire, to Madhuri's song from the 1990 film 'Sailaab'.
"Chitrangada is in a totally different avatar in this song. The look wasn't inspired by Madhuri. Farah Khan's (choreographer-producer) brief to me was to make sure she looks outstanding, and thats what I followed," Rick told PTI.
"Even though it is an item number we wanted it to be very classy... We wanted that very rustic Indian village look for her and that's what we did," he said.
Rick has also styled the dusky beauty for her another upcoming film 'Inkaar', directed by Sudhir Mishra.
'Inkaar' is a love story, with sexual harassment in the backdrop starring Chitrangada and Arjun Rampal in the lead.
"'Inkaar' was a very challenging film for me. Firstly its Sudhir Mishra who I admire a lot, and it was a film that was very real and it had to look believable. I wanted to make sure Chitrangada looks very stylish but also shouldn't be out of place," Rick said.
"Chitrangada sports three very distinct looks in the film as her character progresses. Its a very interesting film. Sudhir is an encyclopedia of knowledge," he said.(MORE)
