Last time Konkona Sensharma had a theatrical release, she featured in the ensemble drama Ramprasad Ki Tehrvi (2021), which had a limited run. "It hasn't occurred to me," she says of her long absence from the big screen. "It hasn't affected my work." That's because streaming has treated us to her talents-be it directing a short (Lust Stories 2), acting in one (Geeli Pucchi in the anthology Ajeeb Daastaans) and featuring in a web series (Mumbai Diaries I & II). "I'd rather do interesting content and portray interesting characters that people would ideally connect to than do theatrical for theatrical's sake," she says.
