In her original tweet, Alia had written, "Day one of DARLINGS! my first film as a producer but I will always be an actor first & forever (in this case a very nervous actor) I don’t know what it is .. a night before I start a new film I get this nervous tingling energy all over my body.. i dream all night about messing up my lines..become jumpy.. reach set 15 mins before time fearing I’ll be late! I guess this feeling will never go away.. and it shouldn’t - because being nervous.. and feeling unsure means you really really care. P.S - wish me luck pls (I’ll need all of it to match up to my co-actors."

Darlings also stars Vijay Varma and Shefali Shah. Vijay also took to Instagram and shared a picture of himself from the sets of the film. He can be seen holding the movie's clapperboard as he gears up to shoot for the film.

"So happy and excited to be back on a set again! Anddddd for a film that I have been sooo stoked about for the longest time. #Darlings in production now. Wish me luck coz I'll need it to match the roaring talents of my fellow artists on this one," Vijay wrote talking about co-stars, Alia and Shefali. He has previously worked with Alia in Gully Boy.
