Talking about it in an exclusive interview with ETimes, Sneha shares, “ So I had gone to narrate Maharaj to Junaid, it was supposed to be his debut film. So during the narration, Aamir Khan Sir and Kiran also sat for it. Junaid signed on for the film, but then lockdown happened, and then the film was in limbo for a while, and that is when Laapataa Ladies was offered to me, and I was told that now nobody has work and everyone has time; this is the story we are toying with and would like to work on it …so it has been a series of wonderful co-incidences."
