URL copied ‘Pagglait’ felt special from day one of shoot: Sanya Malhotra âMamma, I have a feeling my life is going to change.â Thatâs what Sanya Malhotra, who says she is self critical to the point of being negative, told her mother ahead of the release of her critically acclaimed film âPagglaitâ. And change it did. The film, which begins with death but is the life-affirming story of a woman coming into her own, felt special from day one, says Malhotra who has been receiving high praise for her performance. It was also for the first time that Malhotra said she decided not to be too hard on herself and just enjoy the journey. "I don''t say this before every film. To be honest. I''m quite critical, and perfectionist with all the negative connotation attached to the term. This was the first time I told my mother as it all felt special from day one of the shoot." The 29-year-old actor described her character Sandhya as an emotionally mature person who decides to take the reins of her life in her own hands while grappling with conflicting feelings after the death of her husband just five months after their arranged marriage.
