In an interview with Lallantop, Jividha shared, “People had said she has an attitude because of the Miss World title and all that. So even I went in with that impression.

The actress was quick to highlight Aishwarya’s professionalism on set. “She was extremely hardworking. We had several scenes together, and I observed that she was totally focused.

If a step didn’t look right, she would do it again and again. She wouldn’t give up until it was flawless. That really inspired me. I genuinely liked her and even wanted to be like her at that point.”
