In an interview with Mazhavil Manorama, Roshan said that Alia roams around the set without making any major preparations for her role. “However, it becomes obvious from the way she gives the take that she has prepared for it in her own way,” the actor added. Roshan added, explaining that even when Alia appears to be simply sitting and thinking, she’s actually working on her performance internally.
