The Sky Is Pink

, she announced her exit from movies.
What's interesting is that she continued working on the film with full commitment even after her announcement. Her decision did not affect her work for a single day on set. Sharing details on the same, director Shonali says, “Zaira is a thorough professional. She was fully with the film throughout. Even after she announced her exit, I reached out to her for some pending work related to the film and she happily agreed. There was a voice-over of Zaira which was left to be recorded, which was the heart and soul of the film. I am happy that she gave her 100 per cent when I approached her.”
