What made you sign this film?
I accepted this film as I liked the story. It was pure excitement for me to work with a big production house – Mythri Movie Makers. Plus, for the first time in my career, I will be playing an action-based role.

The entire premise of the film is interesting and funny. Logic might go for a toss at times, but then it is set up in the surreal world. I just loved doing this film.

How did you clinch this role?
Director Ritesh Rana saw me in a show. He saw the funny side of me. There is a general perception that I am a serious person. On the contrary, I am jovial. You will get to see that side of me in this film. I play the role of a girl named ‘Happy’ and there is no forced comedy here.

You are the lead in this film…
Generally, when someone says a woman is a lead, it means that the role is of a serious nature. But here that is not the case. The pleasure is I got to play a lead role in a comedy. That is unusual and I loved every moment of it.

You hold a gun…
Yes, I did. It was all new for me. Since I am into gymming and kickboxing it was not all that difficult, though it was heavy at times.

You have completed 10 years of acting career…
Yes, I am content with the way my career shaped up so far. I have enjoyed my journey.

New films…
I have completed a Tamil film opposite Atharva, which will hit the theaters soon.
