“I was first joined theatre and I happened to get into films. When I was acting in the play Infidel, I was spotted by Hollywood filmmakers and two of them cast me as the lead in the ir films. Bully High, directed by Bill McAdams Jr, is out. Until then, acting in films was a far-fetched dream that I didn’t know was a possibility for me,” she says.

Ask her which film she loved, and she says, “I used to love the song Rangeela. I used to copy Urmila Matondkar’s dance steps.”

About the impact of OTT on her career, she says, “I like OTT because of the content. I am truly excited to play characters that provoke and emotions.” Aneesha says taking feedback constructively is important. “One must be willing to listen to feedbacks but at the end of the day, instinct is the best guide. I’m an actor for my love for the art form, not the fame. Criticism don’t affect me. For me, compliments or insults don’t mean anything and I stay on that neutral path.”
