The actor said she is "blessed" the director could see her in a different space. "I kept on saying, 'I am scared. Sir, are you sure I can do this?' And he said, 'Yeah. You can'," she added.
"Turram Khan" also reunites the actor with her "Love Sex Aur Dhokha" co-star Rajkummar. "I was in front of actors like Raj, who have done great characters and been a part of great cinema. Just look at his filmography. Then there is Zeeshan, who is another great actor. There is Saurabh Shukla ji and Satish Shah. I needed to get my game together.
"It was a lot of hard work for me, from the dialect, the character, the world to the people. Honestly, I feel like it's going to be one of my really proud films. I cannot wait for that film to release."
Nushrat will also be seen in Hurdang, a love story set in the backdrop of the 1990s where the actor will be seen playing a fearless girl who doesn't mince words. The film also features Vijay Varma and Sunny Kaushal. "I play an IAS aspirant. There was a different mindset in the '90s of how a girl should be, what her education should be, whom should she be married to, what should the future hold for her...
"In that set-up, this girl has a mind of her own and she falls in love with a guy, who accepts her the way she is and lets her be. They are unapologetically themselves when they are with each other and they have a great future plan. But suddenly, the Mandal Commission comes into effect and all their future plans are gone," she said.
Nushrat was recently seen in "Dream Girl".
