I did train for it but in the actual scene, I had to ride a very heavy bike, which was really tough for me. Also, we were shooting in deep valleys and on a bumpy road in Shimla which made it more difficult for me. Despite all these circumstances I really enjoyed riding the bike. Doing something for the first time is always fun and memorable.” She further adds, “I fell down from the bike on the very first day of the shoot. In the first scene, I fell down almost 5-6 times and it was really funny that Karan, who was sitting behind me, actually saved himself. All of this happened in the spur-of-the-moment. But finally I gave the perfect shot.”
