TIL Desk Bollywood/ Cast for the first time alongside Farhan Akhtar in her next Lucknow Central, actor Diana Penty says she felt a little intimidated by the actor-director in the beginning.
The 31-year-old actor says she was in awe of Akhtar and working with him was an “exhilarating” experience. “He is a multitalented person. Initially I felt slightly intimidated by him… I was a bit nervous but later it all turned out well.
“I am thankful to him for making me feel comfortable. There is lot to learn from him,” said Diana. The Cocktail actor says before they started shooting for the movie, the duo did a couple of reading sessions to break the ice.
“It was an opportunity to come together, work and give our best. There was never any problem working with him, I guess I just made it (referring to feeling intimidated) up in my head.”
