Painting inspired Priyanka's new look

Talent runs in Baweja household, literally. Not many people know but Harry Baweja’s daughter Rowena is a multi talented personality, she is not only the creative force behind much anticipated ‘LoveStory 2050’ but also a self taught artist.

It is learned that Priyanka Chopra’s red-haired look in Harry Baweja’s Love Story 2050 inspired his daughter Rowena to paint a portrait of a woman with similar looks. Ironically, she did the sketch two years ago - after sitting in on the numerous brainstorming sessions for the storyboards.

Love Story 2050 is all set to release in July and stars Priyanka Chopra and Harman Baweja who makes his debut. The painting occupies pride of place in Harman’s bedroom.

Says Rowena, “Penning the script was a painstaking task. As the film’s subject is set in 2050, there were lots of ideas about how people would dress and look 40 years hence. I was sitting with the canvas intending to draw, but no idea was really coming in to my mind. This, being my brother’s debut, played on my mind and I sketched a portrait of a woman based on what I heard from the script. And after we shot Love Story 2050, the film’s characterization turned out to be quite similar in terms of the woman of 2008 and tomorrow’s woman.”
