Entering the lyrical world of Gulzar

The actor, who recently headlined Churails (2020), says Yaar Julahay reacquainted her with the works of Indian subcontinent’s greatest writers. “I had to shed a lot of mannerisms, and tune into the sur of the characters. For instance, Charulata has a certain way of talking that we associate with the heroines of a certain era, so I tried to get that right. Dus Paisay is about a 14-year-old boy who wants money to fly a kite. I imagined how a self-willed boy would speak [in such a situation].”
