But after getting Imtiaz Ali 's suggestion, who has written the script, she got confidence that yes she could pull it off!
The actress was quoted saying, "While I felt that Veronica was a lot more exciting and challenging to play as a character, I was also nervous about whether I would be able to pull it off. But it was Imtiaz Ali , the writer of our film, who suggested I play the role."
