Manisha Koirala: Heeramandi was unexpected, I was chilling in Nepal when he offered it to me
In an exclusive interview with ETimes, Sanjeeda opened about sharing screen space with some of the biggest names in the industry, like Manisha and Sonakshi, and shared that she never felt insecure on the sets. The actress shared, “I was in the safe hands of Mr. Bhansali. So there was never a sense of insecurity within me, I am more than happy that he cast me in the show. In fact, tomorrow if he casts me in a role to just stand silently in a corner and do nothing, I am sure he will orchestrate the moment with great passion. I’ve always manifested working with sir and when you see your dream turn into reality, it feels like a blessing. “
Sanjeeda is also considered to be one of the most talented dancers on TV, but after working with Sanjay Leela Bhansali, her perception about her skill changed. She said , “I thought I was a fabulous dancer until I met Sanjay sir. His knowledge about beats and rhythm is amazing… music is life for him. So when he would react to my moves by saying, ‘Nahi nahi, theek nahi kar rahi ho’, it turned me into a better performer and a better dancer.”
