Artists are always striving to showcase their talent to the world. Once in a while, they get an opportunity to be a part of a project that is one of their favourite subjects. Samara Tijori who plays the part of Sana in Disney+ Hotstar’s upcoming series, Masoom is doubly happy to be a part of it. Samara has always been fascinated with psychological thrillers and bagging an opportunity to be a part of it has been a wonderful experience for her.

Samara Tijori said, “The reason I said yes to Masoom was honestly the script, the setup of the story, the entire background of it. Everything was very interesting for someone like me who enjoys psychological thrillers. It is one of my favourite genres of content, so that was one of the main reasons I said ‘Yes’. Additionally, my character was something I was actually looking to play because there is so much for her to do in the show. She is driving it and I think that’s one of the best opportunities I could have got because I am getting to play a lot of layers as an actor. I am getting to showcase a lot of things, a lot of my skills and I think that was very important for me. So for me, it was the script, obviously Guru and Mihir because I really loved their work and my character. These three were the main reasons why I said yes to the show.”

Hotstar Specials’ Masoom, directed by Mihir Desai and helmed by Gurmmeet Singh as the showrunner, is an Indian rendition of the award-winning Irish series Blood, exploring family ties and deception after losing a loved one.
