Shriya Pilgaonkar is entering an exciting new phase with not one but two major theatrical releases — Mirzapur: The Movie and Priyadarshan's Haiwaan.
In this candid conversation with Bollywood Hungama's Rohit Khilnani, Shriya talks about the incredible surprise of returning as Sweety Gupta in Mirzapur: The Movie. Sweety's character was killed in Season 1 of the hit series, so what does it feel like to bring her back years later — this time on the big screen?
Shriya also talks about Haiwaan, directed by Priyadarshan and starring Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan, who reunite on screen after 17 years. She opens up about working with the two stars, her role in the film and what it means to have two theatrical releases arriving at such an exciting point in her career.
From choosing roles and navigating the movie business to dealing with uncertainty and finding your own path as an actor, Shriya gets candid about what she has learnt from her journey.
She also has a message for young actors trying to make it in the industry — what it takes to keep going, handle rejection and wait for the right opportunity.
