Shweta Bharadwaj uses prosthetics for Rakht.

Glamour doll Shweta Bharadwaj,who will be aging from a 17-year-old to a 30-something woman in a film tentatively titled Rakht,said that she had to wear prosthetics to look the part.

The emotional drama about a young girl obsessed with her mother (played by Shweta) is directed by Indra Kumar’s younger brother,Adi Irani,and is his first attempt at direction.

“It was not the physical change that was difficult to work on. Preparing myself to play a 30-plus mother was tough,but Adi was very helping,” says Shweta about her part as an aging actress in the film. The movie is almost complete with only a few days of shooting left and is slated to release this year.
