Giving a massive positive review about the movie, what are your thoughts on the cast? Was everything perfect, from characters to direction? The film is a small portion of the entire book but two people were very vital for me - one was Sehmat, played by Alia Bhatt and the second was Abdul, played by Arif Zakaria. Arif had played the role of 26 | STORIZEN MAGAZINE ‘Bhai Mardana’ in my film, Nanak Shah Fakir. Therefore I knew he would deliver his best and Alia’s confirmation had come from none less than Sehmat herself.
