“It’s fine. I am not doing a love story, and neither am I living in a fool’s paradise. I know what I am doing. It’s a content-driven film where every role has its prominence. I would rather be a part of a film like this where content wins over screen time, any day. In Neeraj sir’s films, every character has his or her significance. Sonia, my character, is an intelligent and headstrong girl. She is an integral part of the core plot, and you will know what I mean when you watch the film. What else could I have asked for?” says Rakul, who is busy promoting the film, and shooting for her next with actor Ajay Devgn.
