The 27-year-old actor, who plays the titular character and shot the film in Rajasthan, said the drama was a struggle to get through, reported Contactmusic.

"Sometimes I feel that this film has drained everything out of me. I had nothing left. When I shot 'Slumdog Millionaire, I felt like I was shooting in my backyard. But when I was shooting in rural India, it felt like a different world. I learned a lot, I learned to milk a cow!," she said.

Trishna, directed by Michael Winterbottom, is a modern-day adaptation of Thomas Hardy's novel Tess Of The d'Urbervilles.
