In an interview with NDTV, the actress shares that the idea of this film was ‘more observational’, and having said that, one as an individual might or might not agree or accept the choices that characters like these make but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist.
She says, it’s not necessary to agree with all the choices, but as an actor, one must step out of that lens of judgement and humanize this character. The actor also mentioned that historically, films tend to judge characters that indulge in infidelity, something that ‘Gehraiyaan’ has tried to move past.
Recently, Deepika penned a gratitude note for her fans for showering love on ‘Gehraiyaan’. Sharing some of the stills from the film, she wrote, “The response to Gehraiyaan has been dizzying to say the least! ‘Alisha’ has been my most visceral, indelible and delicious experience as an artist. While I am ecstatic and overwhelmed, I am also truly grateful and humbled!🙏🏽”
