She recalled, “So, I gave the exams later. During the exam, a teacher came to me and said, ‘You’ve done such good work!’ The invigilator, who was there, said, ‘Let her complete her exam then we all will get a chance to talk to her, click selfies with her and tell her how good she was.’ They all have rooted for me. I couldn’t tell them what exactly was the film I was doing earlier, but now that they’ve watched it I hope they’re proud of me. I’m now in class 12, studying commerce, and I’ll of course give the board exams, which will be next year.”
Nitanshi shared that, even with a busy shooting schedule, she always prioritized her studies and found time for her academics while filming. She said, “I took my exams just before the shooting of Laapataa Ladies. And a day after the shooting, I had my Class 9 final exams. So, the time I got to prepare for my exam was during the break in between the shots. I used to carry my science and maths books with me".
'Laapata Ladies', directed by Kiran Rao and produced by Aamir Khan, tells the story of two young brides who accidentally swap places during a train journey to their husbands’ homes. Pratibha Ranta and Sparsh Srivastava feature in the film.
