Actress Parineeti Chopra loves drinking tea - so much so that her habit has been captured by director Maneesh Sharma in the rustic-looking "Shuddh Desi Romance".

During the shooting of "Shuddh Desi Romance", the actress was often seen taking sips of tea between scenes.

This inspired the director to use this habit of hers for her character in the movie.

Parineeti plays Gayatri in the movie, which also features Sushant Singh Rajput and Vaani Kapoor.

Written by Jaideep Sahni, the movie releases Sep 6.
