To reach for the stars

The actor who has previously worked in web series like Aashram and She, explains, "I stayed in Chennai for an entire month, before the shooting began. I wanted to get to know the world of my character, Surabhi. I wanted to soak in the atmosphere and observe the people and their mannerisms, which would help me get into the skin of my character better. So, I visited malls and interacted with people, especially young girls. While speaking with them, I picked up many gestures, expressions and their body language which I used for my role." She also adds, "I started enjoying the process.

Soon, I started dressing differently, wore a bindi daily and changed my hairstyle.

Director Elan accompanied me to the beach where I watched people and picked up more tips. All of this helped me immensely to get the finer nuances of my character right," says Aaditi.
