MUMBAI: Adah Sharma, who is recently seen in the dark comedy thriller 'Sunflower 2', has shared about the initial interaction with director Vikas Bahl, and said how the filmmaker told her to 'not' be overly seductive, and flirtatious.

Adah plays the character Rosie Mehta, a bar dancer in Sunil Grover-starrer show.

The actress, who is known for her work in 'The Kerala Story', recalled an illuminating exchange with showrunner Vikas, saying, "Vikas Bahl told me on the first day of shoot that I should play my character with genuine authenticity. Don't be overly seductive, don't be flirtatious, don't show that you are about to tell a joke. Just be genuine."
