"Every time I had to wear Manish Malhotra clothes, it meant that either I was not eating, I had to suck my stomach in. There was one song where you had done the clothes and I ate only chana for a week," Twinkle told Manish Malhotra during their interaction on her YouTube channel Tweak India. The ace designer too recalled the shoot which was filmed in Switzerland. Also Read - Cannes 2022: Deepika Padukone sets the red carpet on fire in a Sabyasachi saree – here are the outfit details
