Regina Cassandra on playing Mrinalini Sarabhai in 'Rocket Boys'
Mrinalini Sarabhai was the epitome of grace, elegance and creativity. Her performances were just mesmerising. And now bringing her beauty and style on to the screen is the charming Regina Cassandra, who will be playing the role of this beautiful danseuse in SonyLIV’s much-awaited show Rocket Boys. Regina Cassandra is unrecognisable as she steps into the character of legendary dancer Mrinalini Sarabhai. Regina brings the character to life with her poise and sophistication, reminiscent of the late dancer.
Regina says, “As an actor, to get a chance to play such an iconic character on screen for my first-ever Hindi OTT release is like a dream come true. Dancers have a certain body language, and it was a challenge to get it right. Mrinalini ji was a very dignified lady who was not prone to any dramatics, no matter what storm she was facing in her private life. So, it was important to portray her in that form. This is an opportunity of a lifetime.” —TMS
