Sadia Khateeb on her latest release The Diplomat and her desire to work in a mainstream masala film

- By LIPIKA VARMA

Sadia Khateeb's presence on screen feels like a breath of fresh air. Born and raised in Kashmir, the 27-year-old actor's recent release, The Diplomat, starring John Abraham, shows her in an intense and commanding space. Directed by Shivam Nair, the film is a high-stakes political thriller and has received critical appreciation. Khateeb's role, shrouded in mystery, has received a lot of praise.

Having debuted in Vidhu Vinod Chopra's 2020 film Shikara, Khateeb has also appeared in Akshay Kumar's Raksha Bandhan. "My character in The Diplomat is that of a woman of courage, of substance and of integrity. She's someone who will inspire all of us in many ways," says Khateeb.

AWESOME TWOSOME IN FEARLESS FILMMAKING

PARNA Sen’s 36 Chowringhee Lane (1981) was a landmark in my formative years as a film buff. I am not sure where I watched it. But what has stayed with me till date are Jennifer Kendal’s eloquent presence as the quiet and secluded Anglo-Indian teacher Violet Stoneham, and Ashok Mehta’s camera that captures the many shades of loss and solitude that imbue the film, and the textures of a fading world it is set in. It was about underscoring the tenuousness of a community as well as the vulnerability of an individual.
