The actress shared a 2008 BTS video which had some of the iconic scenes from the movie, with the other leading ladies Kangana Ranaut and Mugdha Godse giving out their definition of fashion. The actress in her Instagram note penned how this film was a risk taken by her, which turned out to be a remarkable one at the box office.
Thus, proving female-oriented films do have a set of audience who enjoy watching it. She began her note with, “It was 2008. I was just about 5 years into my acting career and had already seen extreme highs and extreme lows in it. I was told taking on this movie could be a risk. But working with the brilliant Madhur Bhandarkar and his incredible team of writers, Ajay Monga, Niranjan Iyengar and Anuraadha Tewari, for almost 6 months before we even started the movie, was one of the most collaborative experiences of my life.”
Terming this film as one of her first acting jobs as she got under the skin of the character Meghna Mathur, she wrote, “Then on set, bringing life into all the various shades of my character Meghna Mathur, was one of my first truly immersive acting jobs. Thank you to the incredible cast that made everything I did much better. Thank you to the amazing technicians and crew, who through all the craziness, always brought it home.”

Along with thanking the audience who accepted the film and made it huge, she has also expressed that working with Madhur Bhandarkar and his team was an experience of her life. The video shared by PeeCee also had some behind the scenes, where she was seen interacting with the director, fashion designers and so on.
She further wrote, “And most importantly, thank you to the audience who went to theatres to watch what was then billed as a ‘female-centric’ movie and made it a huge success which in turn helped showcase that women could hold their own at the box office. #Jalwa”
On the concluding note she thanked everyone for remembering this film of her career, she wrote, “Thank you all for remembering this piece of work with such fondness. #20in2020”
