She stars in the recent release Dange, and wishes to work with Director Sandeep Vanga Reddy again, whose 2019 directorial Kabir Singh shot her to instant fame.
Nikita admits, “I had zero expectations from Kabir Singh.. After that film, I realised that we should never expect anything from any film. If it works, it’s a bonus and if it doesn’t, just move on.”
How was it working with Dange Director Bejoy Nambiar?
He is a very serious film-maker, but if you see his cinema, it is very different.
He is not like your regular film-maker.
It’s not just about the scripts that he comes up with, it’s also the way he presents them. It is completely different.
That credibility is one of the reasons why I said yes to this film.
As a person, he is a little unpredictable. He can be extremely fun at times and extremely focused at others, and you know this is not the right time to mess with him.
The film that he has made is not just in Hindi; it’s also made in Tamil and he has shot it together.
Besides the lead and supporting cast, there is also a Tamil cast and a big crew.
Imagine dealing with all of that!
He is this one-man army.
Sometimes I used to fear him for pulling it off.
Amidst this chaos, if you go and ask him the silliest of questions, he will just smile and say, ‘No, no, do it like that.’
He is very calm with his actors.
Were you sceptical about your role in the film as there are so many actors on the cast?
When he narrated the story to me, he had made things clear that there were a lot of characters. I am a secure person.
