Angira is excited to collaborate with Anurag
Angira Dhar rose to fame after her stint in Love Per Square Feet (LPSF) in which she played the lead role alongside Vicky Kaushal. Her performance was noticed by many including filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who she will soon collaborate with for an international project titled Talagh, which is inspired from a true story. Talking about the film, the actor says that she was over the moon when she got a call from the director, “Anurag sir was shooting with Vicky in Amritsar for Manmarziyaan (2018) when LPSF had released. He had seen the film and sent a message via Vicky that he wanted to chat with me. Later he called me and gave me a low down about the film. We later met and during the meeting I was told how I looked similar to the original character. It’s like a dream come true to be part of a world that Anurag sir is going to create,” she says.
Dhar will be learning three languages — German, Pasthu and Dari for the film, “I have been essentially learning and concentrating on German because it’s a difficult language. There is a tutor who I have been training with. Apart from that, I have also downloaded some language apps to test myself which is really helpful. I will move on to the other two languages and start learning them soon,” explains the Commando 3 (2019) actor.”
The actor says that having an international project in her filmography gives her a lot of confidence, “The avenues open up and it also changes the way people perceive you. As an actor, it just encourages me because I am now confident that I can do much more outside the Hindi film industry. It is really an exciting phase for me,” she signs off.
