I visited the schools there and interacted with school girls to understand things,' she added.

The film revolves around teenage boy Sikandar Raza (Parzan), who dreams of playing football at the national level, but his life changes when he finds a gun lying on the road. Despite warnings from Nasreen, he picks up the gun and his life is never the same again - he enters into the darker side of his nature.

So, would Ayesha like to pursue acting as a full-fledged career later in life?

'Acting is a passion for me. I love to be in front of the camera. I really hope in the future I can continue acting and get good opportunities,' Ayesha said.

Asked how she got interested in acting at such a young age, Ayesha said it came to her naturally.

'Acting has come naturally to me. I never did any acting classes. I never even tried to get into movies. Everything just happened. I feel...something when it's meant to be, it will just happen, that's how I believe films and me happened,' she said.

'It's so strange that I literally lived in the middle of the jungle, in the south of India. Nobody had heard of me before in any way. Then Sanjay Leela Bhansali just came across a picture of mine and somehow he liked me and then called me up. I went to Mumbai and had a small audition. I was on (for 'Black) and it changed so much for me. It was destiny,' Ayesha added.
