Recently, the diva finished shooting for Ranjit M Tewari’s espionage thriller Bellbottom.
Talking about shooting during the pandemic, Lara said that she was a ‘little anxious’ initially but felt at ease once she saw the safety measures being taken by the makers.
“When the shooting finally began, I was the first actor on the sets. To be part of the first film to be shot after the lockdown felt hugely gratifying. I felt grateful to be on a set where every single precaution possible was being taken, sanitisation was meticulous and the cast and crew were checked every day. Everything was secure, right from the food delivery on sets to the drivers who took us to and fro. Yes, we had to remove our masks during scenes but because we felt safe in a strictly regulated environment, we just wanted to do our job to the best of our abilities,” she added.
