"Turning
producer
is
the
right
shift
in
the
gear
and
a
timely
one.
What
bigger
celebration
could
I
have
asked
for
than
my
production
house
'Born
Free'
set
up
with
Zayed
Khan," she
said.
Her
debut
film
as
a
producer
in
which
she
stars
in
the
lead
role
with
partner
Zayed
Khan
Love,
Breakups,
Zindagi
written
and
directed
by
Sahil
Sangha
goes
on
floors
from
tomorrow.
"When
we
heard
Sahil's
script,
we
were
immediately
connected
to
it.
The
level
of
possessiveness
to
the
script
was
so
high
that
we
did
not
want
it
to
go
away
from
us.
The
script
happened
and
then
the
production
house
was
born," Dia
said.
According
to
the
actress,
this
is
a
film
from
the
heart.
"We
wanted
to
make
it
with
that
kind
of
sincerity
and
earnest.
It
was
the
most
natural
decision
we
made
to
make
the
film.
Born
Free
is
about
one
film,
but
making
lot
of
movies,
we
believe
in,
by
giving
opportunity
to
fresh
faces,"
she
said.
Love,
Breakups,
Zindagi,
a
romantic
comedy,
will
be
a
46-day
start-to-finish
schedule
and
release
in
August
later
this
year.
Dia
said
there
was
no
room
for
nervousness
since
the
whole
team
was
prepared
with
clarity
and
conviction.
"Work
on
script
took
two
years
and
for
the
last
seven
months,
we
are
working
on
the
pre-production.
Nervousness
comes
when
you
are
uncertain
or
unclear," she
said.
