She added: “It almost felt like someone has tied a rope around my neck and dragged me across the floor, but because we had limited time for the shoot, I continued to film the song and only took a break after we completed the sequence.”

Her Baby: How Nushrratt acclimatised to ‘pregnant’ body suit for ‘Chhorii’
Mumbai– ‘Chhorii’, the upcoming horror film starring Nushrratt Bharuccha has piqued the audience with its teaser.
Nushrratt, who plays a pregnant woman in the film, started her prep well in advance for the film. For her part, the actress started wearing the ‘pregnant’ body suit three weeks prior to the shoot.
Talking about the same, Nushrratt said, “As I’m not actually going to become pregnant for now in reality, I had them make that body suit for me to feel what a woman bearing child actually goes through. I was wearing it 20-25 days before the film’s shoot started, and literally did all of my chores including eating, sleeping, going to the bathroom, roaming around and everything else to understand the restrictions that it comes with.”
She adds, “I had to put myself in it to be able to self-learn everything that’s related to pregnancy, and then bring them on set with a more realistic facet that the masses can connect to. Though, it wasn’t a prop for me but a part of me, I became so used to it that when the shooting began, I felt more comfortable while resting in between the rehearsals in the body suit.”
Sharing her thoughts on the aspects of cinematic evolution, the actress states, “Since we’ve moved to very realistic cinema, we don’t need to spoonfeed things to the audience. It needs to be so subtle and subliminal that the audience at a subconscious level are convinced to assume you’re pregnant without you actually telling them through conventional actions.”
