Actor Alia Bhatt on Saturday started shooting for her debut production venture Darlings, adding that she will 'always be an actor first & forever'. Taking to Instagram, Alia shared a series of her monochrome pictures revealing that she is always nervous on first day of shoot. She also expressed how she feels 'a night before I start a new film'.

In the photos, Alia Bhatt is seen in her makeup van as she sits in a chair in front of the mirror with the script in her hand. She is seen wearing a white full-sleeved shirt with her hair tied in a high ponytail. Alia gave different expressions in the candid pictures.

Alia captioned the pictures, "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!"

She continued, "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 @itsvijayvarma @shefalishahofficial @roshan.matthew)."
