00:00My immediate reaction was I think shock and disbelief and yeah and then I felt
00:15something very novel which I don't think I've felt in so many years of my life so
00:20it was a very special day for me. It's a day that I'll always remember.
00:30Personally it means a lot to be recognized for doing things differently
00:38for choosing different things from the regular and for still achieving this or
00:47coming here so personally I felt that I felt validated I felt that I was at
00:56least you know someone up there was saying okay good girl you did you're
01:01okay you did the right things but yeah professionally I think you know I've
01:07been here for a very long time and I've been here for many years and I've done
01:11lots of films so I generally you know feel like people by now recognize what I
01:21can contribute to a film and they I already I always get that get my due is
01:30what I feel this is like a just a feather in the cap like it's just
01:35something that adds to that
01:42it was certainly a character that I needed to really get away from my
01:49comfort zone a little bit it took me a minute to sort of snap out of being me
01:56and to be Shobana which is a character which is very very different from me the
02:03mannerisms the small little mannerisms the little things so nowhere in the film
02:09you will see Nitya at any point you'll always see Shobana and that is that is
02:14not something it's a very subtle thing and it's small and it it's not
02:19noticeable but it's you know a very conscious thing so I had to I I
02:25definitely had to be a little bit shaken out of my comfort zone to get into this
02:30character
02:35it's very difficult to talk about special moments because we do so much
02:41multiple films and all of that and the film was two years back but I I think
02:47the song that we shot for at night in the streets that was when we were
02:54shooting it itself it felt special and it felt magical because it was kind of
03:02choreographed and done on the spot and it was done with the two of us and what
03:08was comfortable for us and what we could do and what looked cute and Nitya do
03:14this you know do that and like oh okay okay just jump just okay just stay I'll
03:19do this so it was kind of it just got worked out right then and there and when
03:25we finished the shot and we came out everyone looked like everyone was
03:30beaming and so there was something very magical about that shot and once the
03:37film released that is the one that got the most picked up and became so viral
03:45I wouldn't say there's like one person but when you watch things that are made
03:54with so much heart and soul and when you watch really good work good writing good
04:00direction great acting that inspires you to say okay this is what I want to do as
04:06well so you know this is what I should aspire to be a part of
04:15I hope so I really hope it does open new doors for me I'm very lucky in the
04:24sense that people do give me recognition for everything I've done until now but I
04:30do hope new doors open yes
04:35I would say please choose the profession because you are really good at
04:44the work and if you can contribute something towards the art itself don't
04:52go into it trying to take something from it for yourself go into it because you
04:59can give something to it and also be yourself and be be fearless about being
05:06yourself I think I'm hoping that it makes people notice and see that you
05:21know just notice and say okay who won it this year and who is this actor and you
05:26know if they can recognize whatever work I've done or see some potential or see
05:33potential for for working together I would be very excited to work in any
05:38regional cinema in any language so I'm hoping that that happens for sure
05:49nothing I mean every industry has some beautiful things and every every place
05:58is different every culture is different and I fit in everywhere I think equally
06:04well I can I can be comfortable anywhere so I find there's beauty everywhere
06:15I think I would love to work with there are obviously people who stand out and
06:21people whose work that have I find very beautiful they make such beautiful films
06:27I really do hope that they you know are able to see some some potential in me so
06:36that you know I would be able to work with them there's definitely there I
06:41can't think of like just specific people or one or two people I would love to
06:46work with people who want to collaborate with artists and make something special
06:57well there's there are multiple films that are coming up and in Tamil I have
07:06like two three films that are about to be going into shoot one of them is
07:12Dhanush film which is which he's directing so that's a special one there's
07:17Vijay Sethupathi's films I'm looking forward to working with him again in a
07:21film and yeah a film with Jaim Ravi these are all Tamil projects and there's
07:29probably something coming up in Hindi as well but it hasn't been announced yet
