“We always have a typical notion about a Delhi girl like this is how she dresses up, very loud all the time. She always has this wannabe accent. She’ll always be abusive. No, I’m a hardcore Delhi girl and I’m not ill mannered that way.
“There’s always a certain kind of fierceness that comes with us because we’re supposedly more street smart. We know the realities of life. We’ve walked the path, from DTC buses to auto walas. We have done it all,” she says.
The actress hails from a non-filmy background, when asked about it, she says, “I’m a very proud outsider and even more proud underdog. If you’re an outsider then you get people like Shoojit Sircar or Neeraj Pandey who believe in you and keep on giving you good roles.”
The actress is currently seen in “Running Shaadi”- her second film with Sircar after “Pink”.
