    Alia, who is currently gearing up for the release of her upcoming film “Jigra”, revealed which performance brought the biggest change in her as a performer.

    “I think the first film where I felt a significant shift in my personality was the film ‘Highway’. Maybe it was because I was on the road for so long, away from home. The first time I really had an experience like that was like going away to college but only my college was a film set.”

    She continued: “Perhaps after that, it was a film like ‘Udta Punjab,’ which was a character that made me very uncomfortable.

I actually physically shut down. from the rest of the world, emotionally shut down for the time period that I was shooting the film.”

    “My family, apart from the fact that they are also connected to movies and were connected prior to me being in the movies, the fact that they understand the way it works, that helps a lot. But apart from that, I think what they really prepared me for is that nothing prepares you for what you are about to be on.”

    “You have to have the thickest skin. You have to be very hard-working and even after getting any sort of accolade or love, you still can’t believe that that will stay on forever. If you’re the best actor in the room, soon there will be another actor that will walk into the room who will be better than you.”

    She concluded: “So what you can do is keep the hard work consistent and keep the goodness and kindness to people consistent so they like working with you.”
