So I waited for the right thing. When the offer of 'Hiramandi' came, I accepted it. Because working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali is every actress's dream.

The creative level of everyone was very high.
Sanjay Sir's way of working is very different. No matter how big an actor he is, when someone works with him, he has to surrender himself to him. Everyone has to follow their vision.
