Actress Divya Dutta on Wednesday recalled how there was “no vanity, no staff” on the sets of the hit movie Stanley Ka Dabba, and that her script was simply a Class 5 English textbook. She further called the film one of the projects closest to her heart.

Taking to her social media account, Divya reminisced about the making of the 2011 kids’ film and the fun atmosphere on set. She revealed that for her character Rosy Miss, the script was a mere 5th standard English textbook, and said that a lot of the film’s magic unfolded naturally in the classroom setting.
