The actress–filmmaker is all set to announce her return to the arc lights, not only with the second season of her production venture ‘Paatal Lok 2’, but also her other projects as an actress.
The ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ actress says she is striving to change the narrative for content in India, never mind if she had to turn producer.
“I was told by many that I should concentrate on my film career and not get distracted by production. Today, I can’t imagine myself without ‘NH10’, ‘Pari’, ‘Phillauri’, ‘Bulbbul’, ‘Paatal Lok’ and the exciting projects that lie ahead. The journey started with ‘NH10’ and while it started with a bang, I can tell you that I was a clueless producer,” admits Anushka candidly.
The actress, whose child Vamika completed two months, says she herself was too young when she began her career as a filmmaker. “I was young, and I had to really take time out to understand the ropes of production and I’m thankful that I had my brother Karnesh (Ssharma) who shared my vision and passion of giving clutter-breaking content to audiences. I had a head full of dreams and my brother really fanned my thoughts and brought his strong content sensibilities to the fore. We were and are a great team,” she says. —Koimoi
