How does it feel winning the critics award at Filmfare?
I was never expecting to win an award. Even when I got the invitation for Filmfare, I thought they are just inviting me to come over and watch the show. In fact, I bought a new suit because the invitation said Strictly Formals. I had actually gone there just to watch the ceremony but when they announced my name, I was shocked. When my name was announced, I didnt know how to walk towards the stage, how talk, yet I somehow managed to do it. I was nervous though. I had forgotten the speech which I was supposed to say; just the few people who really helped me in my career were the ones I mentioned. I used to talk in North Indian accent with Saif bhai and tell him about the style of people there Omkara took you to a different level altogether. Your portrayal of Rajjo has made you like an overnight star. I think for the role of Rajjo, Vishal had me in mind. But still, he asked me to audition for the role. Vishal Bhardwaj had long time back promised me that he will give me a role in his film
