MUMBAI: Amisha Patel is one up on Shah Rukh Khan. Even before the actor could wear the black and gold colours of his IPL franchise, Kolkata Knight Riders, for a film, Amisha Patel has done that.

The actress said, “Manish Malhotra who has designed all the clothes for KKR has used that similar colour theme for a song in my latest film. Manish was designing the women’s line for his fashion shows in Delhi and Mumbai and he was discussing their designs. It was then that we decided why not try out the colour scheme for my costumes in a song. The costumes were striking and with my complexion, they are looking great on camera.”

So when she was teased that she is one up on SRK, Patel was startled, “No no… please don’t say that. SRK is the Badshah and be it as an actor, as a friend or as a human being, he is superior. So please don’t say that I am one up on him.”

After Patel’s get skimpy look in Thoda Pyar Thoda Magik, audiences are eager to see what she comes up with next. And with Malhotra styling her, we don’t have to worry about the looks, the question is about her role in the film… Now that’s going to be the next ladder to climb for Patel who has two of the biggest blockbusters of Indian cinema, Gaddar and Kaho Na Pyar Hai, to her credit.
