At the time Alia was busy working on her International Baccalaureate- a diploma I’m so glad she could do - and acting in a movie was a distant dream … one which we were not at all prepared for … just yet. The plan was for Alia to go to a drama school and then somehow try to get a role in something ! Thank you @karanjohar for auditioning her, and giving her a chance to work on herself before finally casting our girl.”

She concluded the note by adding, “So happy she got the opportunity to do this film, and have you as her mentor, guide, best friend and yes - a second father. With immense gratitude and love, and huge congratulations and blessings always ?? ????”
