Anushka Sharma aka Sejal is all geared up for her next big release Jab Harry Met Sejal along with Shah Rukh Khan. She is leaving no stone unturned to promote the film. Recently while talking to the reporters she was asked about what attracted her to the world of movies. Responding to that, interestingly she said, the fun-filled character of Geet played by Kareena Kapoor in Imtiaz Ali’s Jab We Met attracted her to film industry.

While taking to the media Anushka said “Looking at the character of Geet I felt I should be doing films. I enjoyed collaborating with him for this film.” She also said that JHMS was the first movie to be offered to her by Imtiaz and she liked the idea so much that she accepted it immediately. “I have been waiting to work with Imtiaz for the longest time. I remember watching Jab We Met in Bikaner with my parents and I felt this is an amazing film,” she added.

Anushka also spoke about her Gujarati diction in the film. She said “I learnt the Gujarati diction from my coach Dimple. We used to write down the words in the way it is pronounced and once you are familiar with those words it was easier to talk in that accent and style.”
