Soha was keen to have clothes in the movie which were worn by average punjabi girls which were not expensive and gaudy.
She wanted a very authentic Punjabi look for which she herself along with her stylish went shopping on the streets of Chandigarh's sector 17 and 22 where everything was easily available. From dupattas to jootis, Soha made sure to pick all the required stuff she could lay her eyes on. She later said that this is actually going to help her understand the role much better.
She said, "It was a very new experience for me, going on the streets of Punjab and buying little things for myself which not only added the Punjabi taste to my attire but also impacted my personality for my role as a Sikhni. I wanted to get completely absorbed in my character and I felt it was good to take those little initiatives, moreover the people of Punjab were highly sweet and encouraging."
