The director of the film, Rajkumar Santoshi sir, then asked me. Whether you can handle good weight jewelry. He had also said that if you feel difficult, you can avoid it. But I didn't care about it and promised him that I would manage. He was not willing to change even one of the steps because the ornaments were too heavy.'
That's why he asked if there was any difficulty. I learned dance a day before shooting. There was no time to practice wearing jewelry. Later, when the shoot started, I realized the difficulty of dancing wearing that jewelry. Even the earrings had a nice weight to them. Urmila Mandotkar said that by the time the shooting was over, there were wounds on her body with jewellery.
