SI grew up hearing and reading stories about Indian mythology. I’m a complete geek when it comes to that topic.

SHARVARI, Actor

harvari, who made her big screen debut with Bunty Aur Babli 2 (2021) and has two more projects in the pipeline, is now keen on expanding her range as an actor. Confessing her fascinatio­n for mythologic­al characters, she says she would love to be a part of a big mythologic­al film in future.

An avid reader of mythologic­al books, the actor shares that as a child, she has read the Bhagwat Gita, several renditions and interpreta­tions of The Mahabharat­a and Ramayana, too.

“I grew up hearing and reading stories about Indian mythology. I’ve also read numerous books on other mythologic­al tales of India. It would be an absolute dream if I ever get cast in a film on this genre, because I’m a complete geek when it comes to that topic,” shares the actor, who started her journey in showbiz with the web series The Forgotten Army - Azaadi Ke Liye.

Another reason why she wants to explore the world of mythology is that she believes women were always portrayed as feminine yet fierce. “I’d love to play a character that would have such contrastin­g yet powerful shades to her,” she tells us. Sharvari, who has also assisted on films such as Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 and Bajirao Mastani (both 2015), says she would “always wonder what it might be to live in such a world”, while reading these tales. “I’m definitely manifestin­g a big scale mythology film coming my way. Fingers crossed!” she signs off.
