All these heroines are not just regarded for their immense acting capabilities but till now they are respected for the powerful characters they portrayed in various films”. She further adds, “If we talk about today’s generation, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and Alia Bhatt had also done roles in meaningful films which were authored backed as main protagonists and succeeded in winning people’s hearts with their outstanding performances. I would love to do varied roles in all genres where I can showcase my talent as an actor who is capable of doing all kinds of roles.The OTT Platforms have emerged as a great space to showcase your acting capabilities, especially when you see Sonakshi Sinha doing Dahaad’ and Sanya Malhotra essay a headstrong female protagonist in Kathal; such characters boost your adrenaline and eventually, your dream roles’.
