In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Bubble, Sanya Malhotra revealed quite a few things about her feelings on being a star, her character in the film ‘Photograph’, her experience on working with Nawazuddin Siddiqui and much more.

On being asked about her experience working with Nawazuddin and Ritesh Batra, Sanya said, “I had a really good experience working with Ritesh Batra and Nawaz sir. It was a huge thing for me to work with an actor like him and it was nerve wracking for me. I thought this is just my second film and I was in doubt whether I will be able to do acting or not. On first day of shoot, whether I will be able to deliver a dialogue or not.”     

“Initially, I was a bit nervous working with him because he is very good actor. So I stalked him, I watched all his interviews to know how he prepares for his roles so that I could chill out working alongside,” she added.
