I would reach the set at 9, knowing that he (Govinda) would come at 2.30-3. I would get ready, do my make-up, get into my costume, and used to go to sleep, read a book or catch up on my lost sleep because in those days, we used to do three-four shifts in one go.”

She said, “So one really can’t blame him or them. They were all feeding off each other to a certain extent. So, I would never blame him. I would take my beauty sleep during that time, and then they’d wake me up half an hour before he reached the set. I would get up, do my touch up and be completely fresh. I enjoyed that.”
She also revealed that the producers were accustomed to the Rajaji actor’s style of work, and he was very quick at prepping for a scene along with that, his films were doing great at the box office; therefore, nobody complained.
