Bollywood newbie Alia Bhatt says she was confused when director Imtiaz Ali first approached her for his upcoming film 'Highway'. <br /> <br />The romantic drama, helmed by Ali, is Alia's second film after 'Student of The Year', which hit the theatres in 2012. <br /> <br />"I was a bit confused when Imtiaz came with the offer. At the same time I was overwhelmed that he came up with a challenging film and role," Alia told reporters at the launch of the film's theatrical trailer here tonight. <br /> <br />The 20-year-old actress said she is nervous about how the audience will receive the film, which releases on February 21. <br /> <br />"I am nervous and will remain so till the film releases. It keeps me on my toes. Working on the film was an amazing experience and I enjoyed this journey a lot." The film has been shot in six states of North India and it captures the landscape of different regions. <br /> <br />The movie also features Randeep Hooda in the lead role. <br /> <br />"I learnt a lot while working with Randeep. He spoke about motivation and following your thoughts," Alia said.
