It's hardly something you'd expect from Disney heroine. Yes, Tara grew up as a child artiste and her most famous series was Disney's The Suite Life Of Karan & Kabir (2012) and Oye Jassie (2013). She graduated to her first role as an adult in the teen drama Student Of The Year 2 (2019). Tara, who is also a trained singer, ironically played a mute girl in Marjaavaan (2019), her second outing. She will be seen opposite her fellow 'Student Tiger Shroff in Heropanti 2 and in the thriller Ek Villain Returns. She talks nineteen-to-the-dozen about Tadap and about what movies mean to her. Over to the talented actor...
How did you manage to land Tadap? Was there a lot of conversation before you got the film?
I was shooting for a brand in Chennai and I got a call. I think Sajid Nadiadwala sir wanted to meet me for another film. I went to the office and met Milan Luthria sir and Ahan Shetty for the first time. I was handed a printout of a scene from The Dirty Picture, which is one of Milan Sir’s films that I love a lot. He sort of asked me to read through it with Ahan and we casually acted it out. It felt completely right and Sajid sir too acknowledged that. Both Milan sir and Sajid sir said that they were remaking the cult South film RX 100. I had heard so much about the film and watched the film a couple of times. I loved the intensity of the story. So that’s how it happened. I immediately said yes and we started workshops right away and a few days later started shooting the film.
What was the most intriguing part of your character in Tadap?
