It’s been long (four years to be precise) since we saw Ira Dubey on the big screen (Remember Aisha?). But fret not as the very talented actress is back on the silver screen with Dilliwaali Zaalim Girlfriend.
Says Ira about her long hiatus, “My main priority as an actor is to do some different sort of variety in the kind of work that I do. I don’t want to get typecast. It is very easy to get typecast in Bollywood. After Aisha, I got so many offers – kind of glamorous, best friends, loud characters. But they weren’t very exciting for me. I also was doing plenty of theatre that time as I was not getting anything exciting.”
Speaking about what made her say yes to the film, Ira says, “The modern Indian girl or woman wants more than to be a housewife and has a voice to...

At the music launch of Dilliwaali Zaalim Girlfriend, Jazzy B minced no words in calling Bollywood ‘unprofessional’. When asked why he doesn’t do much work in Bollywood, he said, “Bollywood to me is very unprofessional. Everything is last minute here. ‘Abhi gana chahiye, kal banake doge?’ is what people want here. That is not how a song is made.”
He went on to add, “Sometimes we even take two or three months to make a song. I have got a name to protect. I made a couple of songs but I wasn’t satisfied with the music. So I didn’t go ahead with it. I have done this film because the production is very good. I do little work to protect my image.”
Jazzy also said that it took a lot of time to make ‘Zaalim Dilli’ song from the film. “It took them six months to make the beat of this song.

The film's director Japinder Kaur says it is a "dance number and it's a situational song".
