I fell ill and I was on severe painkillers for two-three days and even the director was unwell.”

She further added, "If you spend 15 hours of your day in a freezer in a closed environment crying for the majority of the day, sometimes with a rat that keeps nibbling your fingers, it is not glamorous for sure." Janhvi further said that she was asked to gain 7.5kg for the film, as per the director to look more relatable to the audience.
