"I have one scene with her but it is very impactful. She is a very warm and gracious person. She has got so much achievement behind her and accomplishments to her credit," Anushka told.

The actress added: "She is very inspirational. For me, sharing screen space with her feels great. I was mesmerised by her persona and not just her beauty. Her aura and persona is very huge. You notice that and you get mesmerised."

Directed by Karan Johar, "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil" delves upon the complexities of unrequited love. It also stars Ranbir Kapoor, and is slated to release on Friday.

The film traces the journey of Ranbir's character as an aspiring singer and his relationships at different points of time. 

"Ae Dil Hai Mushkil" got into trouble over its release for featuring Pakistani actor Fawad Khan. It was under threat from the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) for featuring Pakistani talent.

But Karan received a major breather when MNS allowed the release of "Ae Dil Hai Mushkil" but with a rider -- all the producers who employed Pakistani artists, must pay Rs 5 crore each into the Indian Army's welfare fund as an atonement. Distributors and cinema owners have also come forward in support of the film.

Karan had advised Aditya Chopra not to cast Anushka in "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi". And Anushka feels working with Karan is a big achievement for her. 

"I just think it reassures me that if you keep working hard you can turn opinion of people around. It is big of him to accept something on national TV and he said I take my words back that's so sweet of him," the actress said. 

She added: "I always wanted to be part of Karan's film so I don't care what happened before. Someone who didn't want me to be in any films and taking me in his own film is a big achievement."
