The actress further revealed how she honed her craft during the break. "I knew that it needed another kind of training, for which I consciously took this choice of taking a break so that I can prepare myself more on the craft, and I kept doing lot many workshops. I did a workshop with Atul Mongia sir, also. I also did a short film directed by Atul Mongia. The preparation started much before. It's been almost unlearning the things which I knew and again adapting to a new craft. It took me almost three and a half years."ALSO READ - Haq Screening: Yami Gautam Makes A Promise - Will Always Extend Our Hands When It Comes To Nation | EXCLUSIVEWhat happened next?
