“I do believe Aurangzeb was ahead of its time. I think if it came on an OTT platform today it would’ve been amazing. Even theatrically it could have done maybe double or more of the business it did,” Arjun told IANS.

She added: “The pandemic has hit us hard and there were more difficult days than good. Meditation and the art of living really helped me find perspective during these times. I had to really kick in the deep reserves of positive energy during these times. So I could help myself and everyone around me.”
