Mahesh Bhatt, who calls Alia his masterpiece, said she stands out in the trailer. He told ETimes, “Alia stands out as Gangubai because she has not moulded herself to a model.”
He said in a message to her, “Remain what you are. Don’t try to be different from what you are, even for a moment. Only then you will begin to share your ‘fragrance’. Your need to be accepted by the world makes you give in. A flower does not preach. A weed does not want to be a rose. It does not care if you do not praise it or even crush it. The model is the problem.”
