Mumbai: Actress Nushrat Bharucha is currently preparing to play the role of Jyoti in her film ‘Akeli’. The actress says she never knew she could play so many roles.
Nusrat has given many memorable characters like Neha from ‘Pyaar Ka Punchnama’ franchise, Sweety from ‘Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety’, Mahi from ‘Dream Girl’ and Sakshi from ‘Chhori’.
In a conversation with IANS, Nusrat talked about playing such characters and identifying with them.
The actress said that when I started, I did not know that I can act so much. I never knew that I can do different roles.
I started with what was given to me, read the characters and enjoyed it and tried to do it differently.
He said that then I got another script. I tried and got something. When I can’t achieve it, I consult my director.
Nusrat said that she tries different things only when necessary to make her characters stand out.
He told me to change my voice, change my gait, change my look, if needed, add some subtlety to the strangeness. I am also happy to play a normal girl if it is not required.
She shared that I have discovered a wider world of films and characters that I had not thought of.
In ‘Akeli’, Nusrat plays an “ordinary Indian girl” trapped in a war zone. It is a thriller drama film, directed by Pranay Meshram. The film is scheduled to release on 25 August.
