To understand her better, I didn't rely only on the script. I read historical texts, folk stories, scholarly articles, and even watched regional documentaries to get a sense of how she might have carried herself.
Interestingly, my phone now only recommends content related to Prithviraj and stories from that era, I've done that much research. What stood out to me was her quiet strength. She may not have been on the battlefield, but her role was just as important. As a mother myself, I related to the emotional weight she must have carried and the strength it would have taken to stay composed during difficult times. It's a big responsibility to bring her story to life, and I've tried to make sure every gesture and moment reflects her journey as truthfully as possible.
