The filmmaker said that Alia's role was always designed like that according to the demand of the story. He also shared the same with Alia when she was approached to play the role of Sita, and she was completely ok with that, in fact, she was more than excited to join a Rajamouli film.

The "Baahubali" director also said that he would love to team up with Alia again. "I really like Alia, I adore her a lot for the kind of acting prowess she has. I really look forward to working with her again and I'm sure that she says the same thing about me", he said.
