She will soon be seen in the film Tarini, which she has also co-produced. The actress says that there are some movies that always stay special for you, and, for her, these are the Harry Potter series. She says those films always transported her to a different world.

She adds, “The Harry Potter series holds a special place and it remains my all-time favourite. It provided me with a truly inspring experience that resonated deeply. The enchanting world, rich characters, and captivating narrative sparked within me a profound love for storytelling through movies. The series, with its intricate plot and imaginative elements, inspired me to appreciate the art of storytelling more and kindled a passion for crafting narratives that transport audiences into enchanting realms.”

About other films that have inspired her, she says, “There have been a few films that really touched my core and influenced my personality, but if I had to choose one, it has to be The Pursuit of Happiness. The movie teaches us the importance of following your dreams. It showcases the sheer beauty of resilience, unwavering determination, and the strength of a father’s love. The movie reminds us to keep pursuing our dreams no matter how tough life gets for you.”

Meanwhile, talking about working on different platforms, she adds, “When it comes to the medium that attracts me the most, I would say films. There is something about the big screen and the cinematic experience that captivates me. But I also appreciate the intimacy of theatre and the accessibility of OTT platforms. Each medium has its own unique charm.”
