Sanya Malhotra shares "You don't necessarily get the background of a character every time, So, you have to create it mentally and write about it. This is something I learnt from Geetanjali Kulkarni with whom I worked in Photograph. When we were doing workshops, she would bring a diary with her. She had written notes on her character, woh gaav se hogi, aisa karti hogi, etc. I got inspired by it and did it and did the same when I shot for Badhaai Ho".
Post Dangal, the actress shot for Ritesh Batra's Photograph in which she plays Miloni an introverted college girl who tops in her studies, She had only one month to get Miloni out of her system and play Renee, an outgoing girl and the only one who doesn't have a problem with the idea of late parenting in Badhaai Ho.
The actress has also shared "I was curious to know why she has no issues with it, so I wrote about her thought process, where she is coming from her body language, etc in a diary to prep for it,"
On the work front, her next film starring Nawazuddin Siddique, directed by Ritesh Batra 'Photograph' will be screened at Sundance Film Festival.
