 Actor Lara Dutta will be seen essaying the role of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in the upcoming film `Bellbottom`, and on Thursday, she gave us a sneak peek into her terrific transformation.

Taking to her Instagram account, Lara posted a video in which we can see her make-up team changing her look with the help of prosthetics.”Never had I imagined portraying a personality this pivotal and when I saw how this transformation translated on the screen, everything felt surreal and worth it.
