"I never imagined that someone will make a film about a female detective. It was an exciting idea and I connected to the story instinctively. It is the least time I have ever taken to say yes to a story," Vidya told PTI in an interview.
The spy-thriller genre is dominated by men in both Hollywood and Bollywood with women being relegated to either playing the sidekick or glamour add-ons so Vidya did not have much of a reference point to portray the part. The actress, however, was happily up for the challenge.
"The experience was extremely enriching for me. We did a workshop before the film where we got to spend time with the director and writers. It made us like a team even before we started shooting. We put our best foot forward. I hope that only good things happen to this film," says Vidya.
