She accessorized with jeweled thong sandals and chunky jadau jhumkas.
Despite the yards of fabric wrapped around her, Vidya’s toned makeover was discernible from her face and neck.
Her dark straight hair styled in a middle parting framed her face. She wore classic makeup - pink lips and red eye shadow. She rounded up her looks with pale mauve nail color.
"Vidya feels that toddlers can really put a smile on your lips and brighten up your face," says a Balan friend. “So when the actress got a chance to lend her voice to Karadi Tales, she immediately grabbed it.”
