Alia began filming Gangubai Kathiawadi on December 8, 2019 and completed the film in June of this year. This film and set have gone through two lockdowns.. two cyclones.. the director and actor becoming covid during production!!!” The problems that the set has encountered are the subject of a separate film! But what I take away from all of this and more is a massive life-changing event! Being directed by Sir has always been a goal of mine, but nothing could have prepared me for the trip I was on for the past two years. I’m leaving this set a different person today! Sir, I adore you! Thank you for being you… there truly is NO ONE like you, the actress said on social media.
