Asked about the difference in vibes on the set compared to her previous music videos or television shoots, Isha,who teamed up with Sanju Rathod of Gulabi Saree fame, said: "The vibe was great because everyone was speaking in Marathi, and I was just observing their faces, trying to understand what they were talking about. But everyone was sweet.

“People were really nice and cooperative, and Sanju is a sweetheart. He’s not only very talented but also has a very pure heart."

Isha recalled one particularly tough experience filming Shaky.

She said: "The most challenging part was wearing a lehenga that weighed 40-45 kgs while dancing. It was extremely difficult to even take a single step, yet I had to perform the entire dance sequence, including the signature Shaky step.”

“Despite the difficulty, I love challenges and pushed through it."

Isha, who hails from Madhya Pradesh, shares that she wasn't exposed to Marathi songs during her childhood.

She said: "When I moved to Mumbai, I started learning more about it. Gulabi Sadi was a massive hit, and that’s when I realized the Marathi industry is really evolving. This song isn't just a Marathi song; it’s a Marathi pop song that blends Afro beats, hip-hop music, and more. It’s something different."

With her debut in Marathi music, Isha is now looking forward to expanding her horizons further.

She said: "I’m definitely super excited for the upcoming Marathi projects, and I’m open to everything."

Among the many memorable moments from the shoot of Shaky, one stands out for the actress. Isha reveals, "There have been many, but one I’ll never forget is the 40-45 kgs lehenga. I could hardly walk in it, but I still managed to do my dance sequence and shot it."

Wow, 40 kilos?! That's heavier than my luggage allowance! 😳 Major respect to Isha for pulling off those dance moves in that outfit. The song looks amazing though - love seeing regional music getting this kind of production value!

While I appreciate the effort, I wonder if such heavy costumes are really necessary? The performance looks great but seems like unnecessary strain on the artist. Hope production teams consider safety more in the future.

As a Marathi person, I'm so happy to see non-Marathi artists embracing our culture! The song is fire 🔥 and Isha did an amazing job with the dance despite the heavy lehenga. More power to regional music collaborations!

The behind-the-scenes challenges make the final product even more impressive. That lehenga probably cost more than my car! 😂 But seriously, great to see artists pushing their limits for their craft.

I tried dancing in my sister's 5kg lehenga at a wedding and almost fell over. Can't imagine doing professional choreography in 40kg! Isha deserves all the praise for this performance 👏
