Tell us about your background? How did you get into this project?
I studied college in Bangalore. I am also a member of the theatre group there. It was there that interest in acting grew. I loved playing different roles and immersing myself in them. After completing college, my father wanted me to study for civils. I have been studying for almost three years. But the desire to become an actress was strong. I came to Hyderabad to fulfil that dream. I did theatre workshops here. I approached the director for a role in this film. Then he was looking for the role of Nizam’s wife. They felt that I was suitable for that role.
Was it a challenge to play this role?
She appeared as Nizam’s wife in this. It is a very strong yet sensitive character. That character who informs the Nizam of the actual situation. My role felt challenging when the story was told. Also the only glamor role in this is mine. Starting my career with such a strong story and character is like a dream come true. I also took method training for three months for this role. After a look test with Makarand Desh Pandey, I was selected. I think this role will be a great match for my career.
