From a dancer to heroine, how has the journey been?

I’ll just rephrase the question; it’s not just a heroine. It’s from being an ‘extra’ to a heroine! That’s the entire journey of mine till date. I would say it has been an amazing experience! I have learned a lot of things along the way and there are a lot more things to learn too! And I just feel that I’m at the beginning of my rollercoaster right now! I’m looking forward to having a beautiful ride ahead.

Could you tell us about your OTT debut ‘Mystery Of The Tattoo’ and how was it working with Arjun Rampal in it?

I’m not sure whether ‘Mystery Of The Tattoo’ is releasing on OTT or in theatres. The makers have not given us the details about that right now. Working with Arjun was super fun, we did a lot of masti and together we pulled everyone’s legs on the sets. It was a lovely experience working with him; he is a very nice guy to work with!

Could you share any anecdotes while shooting for it?

So the entire crew was from down south - they all understood Tamil and we clearly didn’t understand the language. So there was a language barrier but it was also fun; whenever the director would explain to us in Tamil, we’d have a blank face. And it wasn’t planned, it just happened randomly!
