While shooting , the actress took a history lesson when she met with India's
last Vicerine's (Lady Edwina Mountbatten) 80-year-old translator, Jaya Thadani,
in London.
Huma and Jaya are both acting in the film. Their regular interaction gave Huma
a lot of information related to the Viceroy's era.
Spokesperson adds, "The film is a period drama set against the backdrop of
Partition. Huma is part of Lord Mountbatten's entourage and there's a love
story woven in between her and another member of the staff. Jaya gave Huma a
better understanding of how people spoke and behaved and shared anecdotes of
things that happened in that period."
Huma adds, "It was great to
gather first-hand information on how women spoke or behaved back then. She is a
wonderful person and we have been in touch since then."
Recently, the
Badlapur Actor also visited 'Jio MAMi Movie Mela' with Gurinder
Chadha and interacted with the audiences.
