Gehraiyaan has grabbed everyone’s attention, all thanks to the ultimate casting coup and of course the steamy scenes and sizzling chemistry between Deepika Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi. As we are about to watch the film in the coming days, Deepika’s hubby and actor Ranveer Singh has already watched the movie and his reaction to the film is too honest and genuine. During an interview with indianexpress, Ranveer mentioned that Gehraiyaan looks like the most intense film she has done since the 2015 release Tamasha that starred Ranbir Kapoor opposite her.

However, she also mentioned that her character Alisha Khanna has shades from Piku and Tamasha. Deepika added, “There are shades of a Piku performance or a Tamasha performance because they are similar in the way the characters have been written — real and relatable. But honestly, that is the only common thread in these characters that they are as close to reality as possible. Having said that, this is probably the most complex character I have ever played, which makes this role different and extremely challenging than whatever I have done.

She continued, “At the same time, certain decisions and choices that the character makes are slightly, I would say, unconventional or choices that we are not familiar with. It is because either we don’t know such people in real life or we have not seen such characters in films before. For me, the most interesting part of performing Alisha was to humanise this character. The challenge was in how to perform it in a way that irrespective of you (as in the audience) agree or disagree with it, you empathise with her. So, it was exciting.”
