Kolkata, Aug 21: Actress Priyanka Chopra says she is completely relying on director Anurag Basu to play a mentally-challenged girl in her upcoming movie 'Barfee'.

"Every character requires a certain amount of homework and preparation. In this one, it needed a lot. I have never depended on a director as much as I am doing on him. It depends on how he sees the character and I am kind of working on his feet for the role," the 29-year-old former Miss World said here.

Earlier, she had convincingly experimented with seven looks as she played an eccentric woman in Vishal Bhardwaj's '7 Khoon Maaf' and also smartly pulled off 12 different characters in Ashutosh Gowariker's rom-com 'What's Your Raashee?'.

While refusing to confirm reports of her visiting a mental asylum to get into the skin of the character in 'Barfee', Priyanka said, "This character can do anything. She is very unpredictable".

Chopra is paired with Ranbir Kapoor in 'Barfee', the shooting of which is currently going on in the city.
