Swara Bhaskar looks impressive in the first trailer of her next Bollywood flick, ‘Nil Battey Sannata’ as she takes care of her 15 years old daughter single handed. The actress was initially a bit sceptical taking up the role of a single mother. Swara says, “I was first surprised to know that I would have to play the role of a mother to a 15 year old girl. But when I read the story, it was really good. A lot of people told me that it would be a career suicide to do this film. When actresses are playing younger roles, I am going in a different direction,” clearly mentioning that Bollywood and its fans see things in a serious manner and that may shut the door for this celeb to play younger roles in the future.
Always ready to play ‘hatke’ characters, Swara Bhaskar started preparing for this cinematic role and sure enough managed to pull off a very impressive and remarkable act, as is seen in the trailer. Speaking about her inspiration for this role, Swara adds, “First I tried playing a mother to my cats. It was a failed effort. But (director) Ashwiny Tiwari suggested that I should interview my own mother and know her experiences. So we sat across the table and I spoke to my mother. It was a very interesting experience, which really changed me. Of course, my director also lent me a lot of support.” Directed by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and Distributed by Eros International, ‘Nil Battey Sannata’ is set to release on April 22.
