Mumbai, Jan 12

Actress Sayani Gupta has shared a candid behind-the-scenes memory from the sets of "Four More Shots Please!", recalling how a dress left paper cuts from the metal all over her body, and saying that "glam isn't easy."

Taking to Instagram, the actress shared a string of images from her photoshoot in the silver metal dress adorned with stones, which, despite its glamour, came with its own challenges.

She wrote in the caption: "This metal dress with stones was perhaps the hardest outfit one has worn (and there are many contenders). Heavy af and left paper cuts from the metal all over my body."

Despite the discomfort, Sayani said the look was ultimately worth the effort and has earned a place in her personal "hall of looks" from the series.

"And had to wear it for 3 days for continuity. But was worth it I guess! As @aasthasharma told me at the trial, no one else can pull it off. Not sure I agree, but no one so stupid to even try! But goes to my hall of looks from @4moreshotspls Part 1 #glamisnteasy," she added.

Sayani's latest includes the ultimate season of "Four More Shots Please!" and "Delhi Crime Season 3".

"Four More Shots Please!" follows the story of four unapologetically flawed women (two in their 30s and two in their early 20s) as they live, love, make mistakes and discover what really makes them tick through friendship and shots of tequila in millennial Mumbai. It also stars Bani J, Kirti Kulhari, and Maanvi Gagroo.

Meanwhile, 'Delhi Crime', it stars Shefali as Vartika Chaturvedi, a sharp police officer as she leads her team through intense investigations under immense public and political pressure.

The series stands out for its realism, emotional depth, and portrayal of systemic challenges in India's law enforcement. Praised globally for its sensitivity and authenticity, Delhi Crime won the International Emmy Award for Best Drama Series, cementing its place as one of the most powerful Indian shows on Netflix.

Maanvi was last seen on the big screen in Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan, a spiritual successor to Shubh Mangal Saavdhan. The film also stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Jitendra Kumar, Gajraj Rao, Neena Gupta, Pankhuri Awasthy, and Manu Rishi.

The film tells the story of a gay man and his partner, who have trouble convincing the former's parents of their relationship.

This is why I have huge respect for professionals in any field. We only see the final product. "Glam isn't easy" is an understatement! Hope the costume designers also take note and make things safer.

While I appreciate her honesty, part of me wonders if this is a necessary hardship. With today's technology, can't VFX or safer materials be used? The pursuit of "authenticity" shouldn't come at the cost of an actor's well-being. Just a thought.

As someone who works in event management, I see this all the time. The pressure to look perfect for the camera is immense, whether it's Bollywood or a corporate shoot. Her sharing this makes the industry more relatable.

Reminds me of my sister who is a fashion designer. She always says the most beautiful outfits are often the most uncomfortable to wear. Salute to the patience of everyone involved in filmmaking!
