Not only was the look in the show her reference but also motivated to recreate the exact look of Dimple Kapadia for a shoot she did. For Isha, it was an honour to be adapting Dimple's look while she shared the screen space with the veteran actress herself.
Speaking about the same, Isha Talwar said, “The story is based in Rajasthan and so my character, Badi Bahu, has a particular kind of dressing. To get the look right, my prime source of reference is Dimple ma’am’s look in ‘Rudaali’. Post the show of the show, I wanted to recreate the exact look that Dimple Ma’am had in the show. I rewatched ‘Rudaali’ for my research and then I am sharing screen space with the legend herself. It was not just an honour but also overwhelming and, of course, I was equally startled at the same time.”
