Raazi has opened doors for me: Amruta Khanvilkar
In "Raazi" a spy thriller Amruta plays sister-in-law to the lead character essayed by Alia Bhatt. She has also appeared in the web series "Damaged".
"I think Raazi has opened a door for me to explore different mediums. As an actor I want to work everywhere and language and medium should not be a barrier. We shot the web series actually 15 months ago but before the web show goes online Raazi released and that has changed a lot of things " she told IANS.
"I have been working in the industry for quite some time but I think now all the right things are happening in the right manner. I have gained a certain amount of visibility among the national audience. I am glad."
She feels that while "Raazi" had a focus on Alia s role "everyone s characters were well-written and so all the supporting cast members got equal visibility and importance".
Sharing an insight of her character in Hungama Play s "Damaged" she said: "I am playing a serial killer and you will get to know that with the 10 minutes of the first episode. The story unfolds how and why she becomes like that... So there is a strong back story that sets the journey of the character. I found this role really challenging to perform.
"I am playing a woman who is bold seductive who allures men and takes their money... play a mind game and kill. Yes all things negative but for a reason " added Amruta who is also a good dancer and won a season of reality show "Nach Baliye".
Asked if she is more interested in Bollywood films rather than regional cinema she said: "I do not want to limit myself. If tomorrow I am offered an international film I will do that. I see no reason to say no to any good role."
