At the auditions, she was told that if she gets through, she will have to chop off her hair. For a 24-year-old girl who had left her home over a year back to pursue her Bollywood dream of becoming an actress, this would have worked as an instant deterrent. And it did for most other girls who had queued up for that audition — but not for Sanya Malhotra. Losing her precious curly mane was too small a price to pay for the opportunity she would be getting in return. “Baal hai, ug jayenge, par aisi opportunity nahi milegi,” she thought. But eventually, she would be faced with a bigger concern. “For the first three months, while we were prepping for the film, we were not allowed to disclose to anyone that we have been finalised for the movie, the news was totally kept under wraps. There would be speculative articles in the media every now and then and both Fatima and I would really get worried if we were still in the movie or been replaced by some bigger actors. It was a huge opportunity for us; in fact, it was too good to be true, and we were scared of it slipping away from our hands,” Sanya recalls.
