And when I was spinning, the lehenga would take me out of the frame and the dance master Raju sir would ask, ‘why can’t you stay in frame?’ I was like, I am trying, but the length is taking me out of the frame. So when I spun, I would spin and then the length would push me out of the frame. So we had to do like 10 to 15 takes for that. That was crazy.”
