Good things come in small packages. Mithila Palkar started out doing skits on the internet and her natural ease stayed. She’s never out of element – be it in her OTT series Little Things, Marathi films or Hindi cinema – Her big chirpy smile, her twinkling eyes make her out to be a person high on life. She has retained the ability to look at everything with a waif like curiosity. She’s in love with her craft and can’t think of anything else besides acting. Her zest for life is infectious and you feel like smiling along with her as she yammers nineteen-to-the 1900 about everything from Gulzar to ’70s songs to Madhuri Dixit. Reproduced below are excerpts from a chat with a talented Ms Palkar...
You were the winner of the Filmfare Best Debutant Award in Marathi cinema, and Best actress at Filmfare OTT Awards. Can you describe your two Filmfare moments?
The Marathi Filmfare was my first Filmfare award. I did not expect it at all. Because that year I did not win any of the Marathi debutant awards so I didn’t expect one from Filmfare. I thought I’d go, look pretty and come back. But I won. So no words to describe the feeling. And also the first Filmfare OTT award was so, so special. Both Dhruv (Sehgal) and I won for a show that’s, once again, special to us.
With so many online shows to your credit you are like the queen of OTT. What is your take on this platform?
