Radhika shares, “Yes, this was one of those characters where I chose not to do much preparation. In fact I even asked Anurag if I should read the story before we shoot but he was keen that I come on set without any baggage and just take every scene as it comes. I guess it has worked brilliantly for us. I am very happy with the feedback.”
