Sara Ali Khan, Chitrangda Singh and Vikrant Massey cannot stop biting their nails; their film 'Gaslight' is coming up and they can't wait for the response. In an EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with ETimes, the excitement on the trio's faces could not be missed. And they agreed, "Gaslighting can affect mental health."

Sara explained her role and said she hadn't done something like this before. She said that she had been gaslighted in her life but realised it only later.

Having said that, isn't 'gaslighting' still a term that is used indiscriminately and quite often, in the wrong context? Vikrant agrees that gaslighting can also be wrongly interpreted, in cases where someone just doesn't want to listen to you --- so no matter how valuable your advice is, he/she is going to turn around and say, "Stop gaslighting me."
Sara says that there is one scene where she bangs against the car window. "That scene has stayed with me the most." Vikrant says the second half of the film, in particular, was a very challenging task. "It wasn't the retakes but the prep for the second half. There were days that pushed us against the wall and we fared quite decently."

Chitrangda says that the term 'gaslight' may be nascent, "but it has become a fad word. But isn't this basic human nature? Don't people play mental games?"
'Gaslight' will be aired on Prime Video from March 31.
