Manushi Chhillar, while shooting on the sets of Prithviraj, showed a glimpse of her doodling skills even as she revealed an important clue about the character of her debut film – princess Sanyogita. Manushi shared, “I have been into doodling for some time now and it’s something that I do to explore my creative side whenever I get a chance. I travel with a cute blackboard and chalks to the sets, and in the breaks, I like to doodle. From the time my director met me, he told me that remember ‘you are princess Sanyogita – you should roar like a lioness.’ This stayed with me and I have tried to channelise my director’s vision on the sets. It is a very powerful line. It shows the resolve, the spirit and courage of princess Sanyogita. It made me understand how I have to depict her life on screen.”
The film is being directed by Dr Chandraprakash Dwivedi, who also directed the biggest television epic Chanakya – based on the life and times of the most influential political strategist of India. Prithviraj will release on Diwali in 2020.
