Sharing about this experience, she said, "That for us was a big challenge. The kind of scenes, the nature of the scenes, and performing those scenes in Tamil is a challenge because, obviously, that’s a completely different language for me. But both films have come out beautifully. I am very proud to be a part of both films. I can`t wait to share it with the audience."
