It was a very big lens. I would see everything blurry and that’s how I used to shoot. I would just see that there is a figure in front of me. The first day it took about 15 minutes, but later it used to take me hardly 2-3 minutes. We decided on my look by doing a lot of photoshoots for three days and that’s when we zeroed in on this one.”
