Talking about playing a real-life character for the first time, the actress recently said, “Embarking on my first biopic was a thrilling journey that holds a special place in my career.

Tarla is feisty but in a restrained sort of way. Her arc is very different from the other female protagonists we have seen in biopics. She makes her way into people’s hearts.”
