In a recent interview with IMDb, the ensemble cast of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s latest directorial venture, “Heeramandi,” shared some delightful anecdotes from behind the scenes. Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Taha Shah, Fardeen Khan, Sharmin Segal, and Sanjeeda Shaikh took a candid dive into their experiences while working on the Netflix series, revealing both the challenges and the joys they encountered.
One of the standout moments of the interview occurred when Richa Chadha light-heartedly teased her co-star Sharmin Segal about her culinary skills. Sharmin claimed to be a great chef, prompting Richa’s playful roast, which added a dose of humor to the conversation.
“Heeramandi,” which premiered on Netflix last week, has been receiving praise for its compelling narrative and stellar performances. As the actors soak in the acclaim, they reminisce about the memorable moments they shared while bringing Bhansali’s vision to life.
Reflecting on the demanding nature of their roles, Richa Chadha revealed the challenges she faced while filming the series. “The script is loosely literal like an instruction,” she explained. “I had no such big responses after reading the script.” She recounted the arduous process of shooting a particularly intense dance sequence over eight days.
Sharmin Segal, too, shared her experience of filming emotionally taxing scenes. “There was a scene in which I had to cry for 4 days,” she recounted. “By the 4th day, my eyes were like potatoes.”
Despite the challenges, the cast expressed their gratitude for the opportunity to be part of such a groundbreaking project. Each actor brought their unique talents to the table, contributing to the rich tapestry of characters that populate “Heeramandi.”
