Actress Alia Bhatt says that director Abhishek Chaubey was sceptical to cast her as a Bihari girl in 'Udta Punjab'.

"I think our director Abhishek Chaubey was sceptical to have me in the film. I am happy I am a part of it. This character is completely different from what I am in real life. I felt there will be out of box things in the film and it has," Alia told reporters here at the trailer launch of "Udta Punjab" last night. For her role of a Bihari migrant, Alia had to learn the dialect.
