Priyanka to walk the red carpet at the Oscars

- Shreya Mukherjee

Actor Priyanka Bose (below) is super excited to attend the Oscars this year for her film, Lion. The actor will be walking the red carpet in a sustainabl­e gown, to be designed by British fashion designer Vivienne Westwood.

“Emma Roberts and I am the face of a campaign that Vivienne Westwood is associated with. It’s called Red Carpet Green Dress, which is like wearing sustainabl­e gown on the red carpet. I totally support the cause. A couple of other stylists are also on board to give us an interestin­g look,” says Priyanka. The sustainabl­e fashion design campaign is intended at raising awareness about the impact of fashion on the planet.

Ask her more about the gown and the Guzaarish actor shares, “I really don’t know much about the colour and cut. I’m just ready for a surprise. I guess it will be a wonderful Westwood signature Oscar red carpet gown and I’m excited about it. That’s the reason I’ll be reaching early so that we talk through the entire process.”

Priyanka is looking forward to uniting with the entire team of Lion and is anxious about her debut appearance. “Lion has everything in it to win, this year. The story about despair, hope, love and human perseveran­ce connects well with all,” she adds.

So whom does she want to bump into at the ceremony and Priyanka says, “Oh there are so many of them. I’m openly crushing on the lead actor of Moonlight. I totally loved the film. I also want to exchange pleasantri­es with Barry Jenkins. If I get to work with him then there is nothing like it. I’d like to say hello to Lupita Nyong’o and even Emma Stone.”
