In
her
new
film
Bhoomi,
Aditi
Rao
Hydari
is
cast
as
Sanjay
Dutts
daughter.
The
two
have
come
away
feeling
bonded
beyond
the
camera.
Aditi
is
already
feeling
the
pangs
of
separation.
"The
shooting
in
Agra
was
very
very
tough
in
terms
of
the
crowds
and
other
on-location
problems.
Just
having
Sanjay
Sir
around
made
me
feel
so
comforted.''
''I
wouldn't
say
he
was
just
protective
about
me.
That
he
was
for
sure.
But
there
was
a
lot
more
in
the
way
he
lightened
up
the
atmosphere
on
location
during
the
shooting
of
the
tense
drama
with
talks
on
food
and
friends
and
family.
He
just
made
life
so
much
easier," she
said.
Aditi
feels
Bhoomi
will
play
a
significant
part
in
reversing
gender
stereotypes.
"Normally
we
see
only
the
mother
being
so
protective
about
her
daughter.
This
is
a
rare
instance
of
a
father
doing
all
the
things
that
mothers
are
traditionally
shown
doing.
Why
should
the
responsibilities
of
parents
be
gender-based...father
does
certain
things,
mother
does
the
rest...Why
can't
both
parents
share
all
the
responsibilities.
Sanjay
Sir
plays
both
my
mother
and
father," she
said.
Another
stereotype
that
Aditi
is
dying
to
break
concerns
her
image
of
the
fragile
vulnerable
girl.
Aditi
demurs,
"Sorry
I
am
not
weak.
Just
because
I
look
a
certain
way
doesn't
mean
I
am
fragile
and
helpless.
In
fact
right
from
the
beginning
I've
never
played
weak
characters.
In
our
films
women
are
considered
strong
only
when
they
run
around
with
a
gun
in
their
In
Bhoomi,
Aditi's
character
goes
through
a
traumatic
experience
but
never
loses
her
inner
strength.
"A
lot
of
women
in
our
country
are
subjected
to
violation
of
one
kind
or
another.
My
character
remains
strong
and
dignified
in
the
face
of
excruciating
adversities.
I
think
the
film
conveys
a
very
strong
message
to
women,"
she
said.
But
it's
the
thrill
of
working
with
Sanjay
Dutt
that
Aditi
has
carried
home.
"He
is
such
a
terrific
father
on
screen.
His
eyes
convey
infinite
wisdom.
Off
camera
too
I
felt
as
if
I
was
communicating
with
my
father,"
said
Aditi.
