All praise for Neeraj Pandey for his brand of cinema, she shares, “I’m someone who has always loved Neeraj sir’s films. I missed the opportunity of working with him in M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story (2016). I was supposed to play Disha Patani’s role [of Dhoni’s ex-lover] in the film, but couldn’t take up the project because I was busy with my Telugu projects. This time, when Neeraj sir narrated the script [of Aiyaary] to me, I immediately said yes. The plot [of the film] is very interesting,” she says.
