Working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali

What makes Heeramandi so special is that there are so many stories to tell, each about a very unique woman. And Sanjay Sir really gives a lot of dignity to his female characters and their stories.”
She added, “He believes every woman, despite where she comes from, deserves to be treated like a queen. And her story is worth telling with a lot of dignity, pride, and courage. So, to be a part of Heeramandi and to be with Sanjay Sir, to surrender to him, to learn from him was incredible, and I feel very blessed for it. I love Sanjay Sir and it was amazing working with him.”
