"But I must praise myself a bit, I am a trooper in that sense. I go with the flow and I am always focused on getting the job done. Wearing a puffer jacket over that chiffon saree would have taken away the beauty, so I was happy doing it as I got to live my dream," she said.

Alia Bhatt praises Ranveer Singh for taking care of her

During the shooting, Alia Bhatt said that she wore chiffon sarees, which were not ideal for the cold weather. However, she stated that the team's constant support and attention made the experience manageable. The actress further said that his co-star Ranveer Singh, who was clad in jackets, made sure to provide some respite to Alia by offering her his jacket in-between the takes. 

"Ranveer, who was wearing jackets, would keep putting them on me in-between takes to provide some respite," she said.

The Gangubai Kathiawadi actress shared that she handled the situation with a positive attitude and a "trooper" spirit. She said that she remained focused on delivering her best performance and not letting external factors deter her. 

After the release of the song Tum Kya Mile, the film's director publicly apologised to Alia for subjecting her to the harsh cold weather during the shoot. He playfully mentioned how he, too, fell drastically ill, perhaps due to some karmic punishment for making the actress endure the freezing temperatures.

Additionally, he acknowledged Ranveer Singh's nervousness as it was his first romantic song shot in the mountains. He further praised him for his determination and resilience.
