Asked about her experience of working with Shahid, whose movie "Ishq Vishk" she had seen when she was all of 10, Alia: "Lovely lovely... A huge learning for me... And too much fun on set."
 
Best thing about Shahid?
 
"He's always happy and charged to be on set even now," said the the 22-year-old, who refrained from revealing much about her character in "Shaandaar", apart from sharing: "Let's say she has many quirky things about her! Like me ;)"
