Actor Alia Bhatt shared a series of monochrome pictures from the sets of her debut production venture 'Darlings.' The photos, posted on Instagram, show Alia in her makeup van, sitting in a chair in front of the mirror with a script in her hand. She is seen wearing a white full-sleeved shirt with her hair tied in a high ponytail.
The actor captioned the pictures, “Day one of DARLINGS! my first film as a producer but I will always be an actor first & forever (in this case a very nervous actor) I don’t know what it is .. a night before I start a new film I get this nervous tingling energy all over my body.. i dream all night about messing up my lines..become jumpy.. reach set 15 mins before time fearing I’ll be late!”
She continued, “I guess this feeling will never go away.. and it shouldn’t - because being nervous.. and feeling unsure means you really really care. P.S - wish me luck pls (I’ll need all of it to match up to my co-actors @itsvijayvarma @shefalishahofficial @roshan.matthew).”
The project is co-produced by Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment, and also stars Shefali Shah, Vijay Varma, and Roshan Mathew. The film is set in Mumbai against the backdrop of a conservative lower-middle-class neighbourhood. Directed by writer Jasmeet K Reen, it is a dark comedy tracing the lives of two women as they find courage and love in exceptional circumstances.
On the work front, Alia has several projects in the pipeline. She will be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Gangubai Kathiawadi', 'RRR', and 'Brahmastra'.
