Just to test whether she too could do it she too mugged up the lines and gave the audition.

Initially, she was shocked how a small town and ordinary looking girl like her could get selected for such a big role when there were so many talented girls aspiring for the same. Yes, they took time. When she came down to Mumbai she was not even finalised. There were other girls competing for the same role.
