Flora Saini's Stree revelation

Flora Saini recently gave an interview to BollywoodLife.com where she revealed that the cast of the film, including Rajkummar Rao never really saw her actual face and neither did they had any conversation outside the set. There was only one instance where Rajkummar Rao and Flora came face-to-face during the production of the film, however, the team did not have a clue of how she actually looked until the film was released on the big screen.

Flora also revealed that usually, her timings would not be coordinated with the other stars as she had to arrive on set during night schedules as the ghost she plays in the film only appears at the night. This kept her away from mingling with the stars.

She revealed that a bigger star maybe busy focussing on their role which kept her away from disturbing anyone on the sets. But, the actor was the one who came up and greeted Flora by saying 'O Stree' which was a catchphrase used in the film.
