Main normally 15 takes deti thi. (I got screwed so much in that one shot. I usually gave 15 takes). I shouldn't say that (smiles). Mujhe 25 takes lage hain uss din. Fir finally ho gaya. Poore din ka jo maine apne aap ko prepare kar ke rakha tha, wo ek hi shot mein chala gaya. Tabhi main gayi andar vanity mein, tab sir aaye andar aur bole, 'Mujhe bahut mazza aa raha hai. Main ek aur shot ke liye rukne wala hu' (It took me 25 cuts that day. Then it finally happened. Whatever I had prepared for the entire day, got wasted on that one shot. When I got back to my vanity van, sir came and said, 'I'm enjoying a lot. I'll stay back for one more shot," she said.

Aur main nahi kar payi. Aur main ro padi 30 takes ke baad (I went back on set. 30 takes, it wasn't okayed. Then I got frustrated. He didn't scream at me. He didn't say anything except, 'You have to do this.' And I couldn't do it. So I cried after 30 takes)."
