I waited for so long to release the film because my director was diagnosed with cancer and after that his father also expired.I have always taken up challenging roles. I have not always played bubbly characters on-screen. I have played many serious roles also. I am fortunate enough to work with some amazing directors. I have done 36 films and have never followed any particular trend of roles,I am confident that the latest outing is another such role.”
