Anushka Sharma, who is all set to play the vivacious ‘Bijlee’ in Vishal Bhardwaj’s upcoming Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola, has always been the director’s fan. Even before she was taken aboard on the film, she was all praises for Bhardwaj’s past works like Kaminey and Omkara.

After watching Kaminey for the first time, Anushka Sharma was so impressed by the film that she told Shahid Kapoor that director Vishal Bhardwaj should be fed with a lot of special vitamins so that he can live longer and keep making movies for hundred years.

Anushka had also watched Omkara before she was into films and had simply loved it too. Later when Shahid introduced Anushka to Vishal Bhardwaj for the first time he also told him about the wonderful suggestion that Anushka Sharma had made. Vishal just laughed at the idea but Anushka was embarrassed that a director of Vishal’s level heard just childish banter.
