Rakul said that she would love to play a character like Gangubai. “Actors have to get inspired by other actors' work. If you think you are the best, then that’s it. That’s a downward trail for you. And I get inspired so many times by the films I watch. I think Gangubai by Alia was outstanding. And I remember leaving her a long message because when you see that kind of work, you get so inspired,” she stated.

 

“I want to do something like that. Or even Kriti in Mimi was amazing. I loved Mimi. And I think there are so many peers doing such amazing work. It always inspires you and pushes you,” said Rakul, expressing her excitement about taking on author-backed roles.

 

When asked about a genre she’s eager to explore but hasn’t been offered, Rakul said, “I haven't done an out-and-out love story. I've done rom-coms, but I haven't done a deep, passionate love story. But more than that, I want to do historicals, where you play a royal-looking queen. So I want to do a historical film, and I'd love to do a biopic because I feel the journey of creating a character from scratch and becoming another person is so exciting.”

 

Mere Husband Ki Biwi, starring Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar, is set to hit theatres on February 22.
