Meet the Sye Raa Stylist, Uthara Menon

Posted : September 27, 2019 at 2:49 pm IST by ManaTeluguMovies

Uthara Menon, sister of noted filmmaker Gautham Menon, is currently working as a stylist for the magnum opus Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy. Uthara is a former model in Chennai, having walked on-ramp at the tender age of 11 years. She later, transformed into a renowned stylist and worked with many bigwigs in Chennai.

Uthara said in an interview that having a passionate dream isn’t enough to meet triumph. One must have a burning desire to reach their dreams. She claimed that knowing the right purpose and addressing her long term goals has what made her success today. Working in a big film like Sye Raa is not a joke and my struggle all these years made me stand where I am today, said Uthara.

For Sye Raa, Uthara made sedulous efforts by going to museums, reading historic books, architectural temples and particularly getting expertise in Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy’s appearance like how his turban, shawl and hairstyle should be. She, along with production director, Rajeevan and concept director had to collaborate for nearly six months and work on the precise look by drawing more than thousands of sketches. She made sure to have lead character’s costume include props integral to the story. She had insight into the character and work with the production staff to determine the direction of the performance visually.

Her first breakthrough was Tamil film Yennai Aarindhal starring Ajith. Her brother Gautham Menon, who was the director of the film, was impressed with her work and gave her the opportunity to style his actors. In Telugu, Uthara worked effortlessly for Manam, Sailaja Reddy Alludu, Gang leader and a few more. However, director Surender Reddy was highly impressed by her marvellous work and gave her a chance to work in Sye Raa.

Uthara revealed that costumer designer Sushmita Konidela and Anju Modi (who designed for Bajirao Mastani), worked along with her in sketching detailed drawings of each character for the film and started their respective works. She also made sure to not only fit the characters but also enhance the whole feeling of the scenes too. It is highly laudable to know how Uthara worked hard for the film only to make her efforts fully embody the given characters.
