The much awaited trailer of Junglee Pictures and Dharma Productions’ Raazi, directed by Meghna Gulzar, is out. Raazi is an adaptation of Harinder Sikka’s novel, Calling Sehmat, and stars Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal in pivotal roles.
Alia Bhatt’s character in Raazi is a young, Naive girl who decides to risk her life for her country. When asked Alia about her preparation she says that it was the most beautiful aspect as she didn’t have to enact anything. A lot of technical preparation went into playing Sehmat.
Alia had to improve her Urdu and then unlearn what she had picked up, because she plays a Kashmiri and she wasn’t required to speak chaste Urdu or Hindi. She also learnt how to drive a Jonga (a kind of jeep used by the armed forces). Emotionally, one would have never been able to prepare for the journey she set out on, because once they started shooting, it was relentless. They have shot nine scenes a day, and that’s something Alia have never done before.
When asked Alia about which one is the most difficult role to portray, as the trailer shows Alia playing a daughter, a wife and a spy.
Alia says that, “The guilt that Sehmat feels as a wife was the toughest to portray”.
What Alia has learnt from the character?
