She Stole Many Heartbeats As ‘Parthavi’ In Her Debut Film Dhadak, Has 3.4 Million Adoring Followers On Instagram And Is All Heart When She Confesses, “I Just Want People To Love Me.” Hello! Talks To The Gamine Actress On Losing Her Screen Virginity, Walking The Same Tightrope Between The Real, The Reel And The Surreal As Her ‘Padma Shri’-Winning Mom, And Of Course, The Beautiful New Connections That Have Blossomed Along Her Passion-Filled Journey. Of Course, She Tops Our List Of Hot Singles Countrywide….
From your first cover shoot with HELLO!, we see you have a good handle on how to speak to the camera…did you have this confidence from day one? Especially given there was so much awareness about cinema at home?
“No! Not at all… I didn’t have that confidence at all. Yes, we did talk movies a lot, but all that is very different from actually being in front of the camera. I think it always excited me, but there was always a different kind of rush every time. I think that the ease I feel now in front of it, wasn’t there even in my last photo shoot. Like in this shoot, I had a different level of comfort. My relationship with the camera is a changing one, each experience seems to build on the last.”
Years ago, we were talking in your living room – your mom, sis, you and I – and Sridevi shared, ‘I don’t know what happens to me when the camera is switched on. I forget everything else and become this character, and it takes over completely.” Do you feel this same ‘switch’ before the camera that your mom did?
“I think that there were instances in Dhadak when I felt like it happened, and it’s the most exciting and fulfilling feeling as an actor. There were two-to-three scenes when I felt overtaken, I had to force myself to snap out of it – like you know, when you forget who you are, and are so in the moment, and you live someone else’s truth so honestly, in front of the camera. It’s a whole different experience, you get transported. Of course, not to the level my mom got transported, she has been in front of the camera from the age of four, but there were moments in Dhadak when I allowed myself to get so immersed.”
