“And it’s really painful. I was feeling like some death has happened in the family. It is painful as you are so invested in the film,” she added.

Anushka Sharma had a great time working with the entire team of ‘Bombay Velvet’. The actress had spent hours and hours with the entire team of the film on the sets. She stated, “As I don’t do so many films, I really get attached to the ones I do, I’m really involved. I had the best time shooting for it. Creatively it was the best experience. It was very unfortunate that it didn’t make the money, it could have. It didn’t become the film it could have.”

“But I think you need to have these kinds of things in life to kind of, keep you grounded,” she added.
