HOW WAS IT WORKING WITH TAHIRA KASHYAP IN SHARMAJEE KI BETI?
When I was approached for the film, the producer insisted I hear the story from Tahira. She is so skilled at narration that it felt like I had watched the entire film. They executed it well and were clear about their requirements from the film and its actors. The best thing was we had a lot of fun on the set. It’s important not to feel pressured and to enjoy the work. I found my role interesting.
YOUR CHARACTER, KIRAN SHARMA, BATTLES LONELINESS AFTER MOVING TO MUMBAI. DID YOU FACE A SIMILAR SITUATION WHEN YOU LEFT A SMALL TOWN IN PUNJAB FOR THE METRO CITY?
Kiran didn’t know what to do other than manage a household. I came to pursue work, so I was prepared. Nevertheless, everyone experiences a journey of loneliness. Even with help, you must fight your own battles. The city teaches you self-reliance.
DID YOU RESONATE WITH THE CHARACTER OF KIRAN SHARMA?
