"As an actor, I always take on difficult and interesting roles"

New Delhi:

Beginning in the Hindi film industry under the Yash Raj Films banner, in front of Bollywood superstar, Shah Rukh Khan, is a dream for any actress in the making. Anushka Sharma has seized this opportunity and taken new steps in her ten-year career. As the actress prepares for the release of her next film Zero, again with SRK, she says the only way to grow as an interpreter is to challenge herself.

"I think that as an actor, I always try to put myself in an uncomfortable position, to take on roles that are challenging and interesting.I think it's the way for me to grow as an actor.

"In fact, when I took my duties in Zeroit was an opportunity to know and to enter the mind of a character suffering from a certain physical condition of which I knew nothing, which excites me. An opportunity that would reinvent the actor in me, every time I go on screen, "Anushka told IANS in an interview.

Led by Aanand L Rai, the story of Zero These are three characters played by Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka and Katrina Kaif in the film.

Anushka plays in the film a NASA scientist suffering from cerebral palsy.

"Very interesting, Aanand Sir and our writer have celebrated the character beyond his physical challenges and it's beautiful.It was a very well-documented scenario and the projection of the character is very positive, you know it She is very accomplished as a professional, she is smart, "said Anushka.

"The characters in My and Shah Rukh Khan have challenges but they also have dreams and desires.On the other hand, the character of Katrina has her challenges that are not so visible to people," said the Band Baaja Baaraat actress.

She began her career in 2008 with Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Anushka played in movies like Jab Tak Hai Jaan, PK, NH10, Dil Dhadakne Do, Sultan, Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, Bet, Sanju and Sui Dhaaga.

So, is the transformation of a pretty heroine into a character with physical challenge, without vanity, a pbadage from actress to artist?

"If you watch my first film, there's no scene where my hair is flying and I'm wearing a glamorous dress." I played a girl from a small town to Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi because I think Adi (the director Aditya Chopra) Sir believed that I could manage on my own with my acting abilities. Then I acted in Band Baaja Baaarat in front of a newcomer, with a new director. "

"You see, at the beginning of your career, no one will propose a stimulating role because they do not know your value as an actor.It is worthy of this work to prove how effective you are as a performer, as a performer. When I made a film like NH10 in the fifth year of my career, it was quite difficult because nobody wanted to do this movie, you know. So I would say that the transformation is not sudden, but an ongoing process to chase excellence as an actor, "explained the actress.

Pretty interesting to see how the actress chooses movies with a choice of unconventional roles. Coming from a context other than cinematographic, where does she get insurance?

"From the beginning of the trip, anyone who came to talk about lack of visibility and insecurity, I told them to get out of the door.When we start, there are people who would create a sense of insecurity in our mind and then they will begin to control our decisions based on that. "

"This affects the level of trust, you know, and I quickly learned the nature of the business here, which is focused on success." Since I had no despair or doubts about it. "Insecure to be part of every movie, I waited patiently to choose the right role.," She added.

Zero is published on December 21st.
