00:00Priya ji, first of all welcome to INS. Thank you.

00:03First of all, you should know the main question.

00:09What happened in Lonawola?

00:13You have to ask Raja Sir and D.K. Sir.

00:16In Season 3, Sushi will be in which zone?

00:20Is there any guilt or tension?

00:25I can't talk a lot about that.

00:30As a character, it has been evolved.

00:35Sushi's character and dynamics have been changed.

00:38So when season 3 comes, you will know.

00:41Manoj Vajpayee and Sushi are so layered and realistic.

00:45What is the process in the set?

00:48I think both of us are both spot on actors.

00:53When Manoj Sir comes, there are a lot of rehearsals.

00:57After that, we are going to take.

00:59But when Manoj Sir comes, you always have to be very careful,

01:04very on your toes,

01:05that when you know what happens,

01:08so your presence of mind has to be really strong.

01:11Sushi is a working movement.

01:13She is a mother.

01:14And in her character, there are a lot of grey shades.

01:17So how do you personally feel Sushi's character?

01:21I don't think she is a grey shade in her character.

01:24But from Sushi's point of view, she is right.

01:30Because at the end of the day, she just wants to be heard,

01:34she wants to be seen,

01:35she wants to be somebody to sit with her and talk to her,

01:39and then she wants to be seen,

01:41she wants to be seen,

01:42she wants to be seen,

01:43and she wants to be seen.

01:45And finally,

01:46when she has been seen,

01:47and then

01:48what is she doing,

01:49and what is she doing now?

01:50And when she has evolved,

01:51what is she doing now?

01:52So what is she doing now?

01:53At the end of the day,

01:54Sushi is right in her place,

01:56and I won't take that away from her.

01:58From your first film,

02:00you have seen a lot of transformation,

02:02so how do you see your career journey?

02:07Very good.

02:08I think,

02:09I am very happy with the way the career has turned out.

02:11South cinema,

02:13and Hindi web series,

02:14you have worked in every medium.

02:16How is your experience in every medium?

02:18Each is own.

02:19The film experience is different.

02:21It is different from OTT.

02:24But the only thing is,

02:26in OTT,

02:27it is all,

02:29how should I put it,

02:30it is very sync sound,

02:34whereas in the film,

02:38you have the liberty to dub.

02:40In the early days,

02:41what challenges do you have to face?

02:43And now,

02:44how do you choose a role?

02:46No,

02:47I don't always try to choose a role in a particular genre.

02:52I choose a role.

02:53Whatever makes me good,

02:54if it makes me convincing,

02:55that I can do it,

02:57and I see myself doing it,

02:59I don't do it.

03:01After receiving a national award,

03:03what has affected your image and career?

03:06What have increased expectations?

03:08I would just say this,

03:11that,

03:12after the national award,

03:14the tag,

03:15the name,

03:16I think,

03:18keep,

03:19maintain that,

03:20to maintain that,

03:21I doubly,

03:22I am very careful,

03:23I am very careful,

03:24I am very careful,

03:25what I choose,

03:26what I am not.

03:27Sometimes it is work,

03:28sometimes it is not,

03:29but I make sure that,

03:30my work is being noticed,

03:32and spoken about.

03:33You have worked in Southa Bollywood,

03:35both of them.

03:36So,

03:37Bollywood,

03:38and stalwart,

03:39like Ajay Devgan,

03:42Shah Rukh Khan,

03:43Manoj Bajpaying,

03:44So,

03:45what is the difference of their working style,

03:46and what is the similarity?

03:47There is a difference,

03:48each person is different on his own,

03:50and each people are,

03:52superstars in their own right,

03:53and,

03:54I am very fortunate,

03:55and,

03:56I am very happy,

03:57feeling,

03:58that,

03:59I have the opportunity to work with them,

04:02and,

04:03if given a chance,

04:04definitely,

04:05I would like to work with them again.

04:06There are different genres of actors,

04:08and,

04:09their magic of stardom,

04:10and,

04:11they are different,

04:12so,

04:13what is your take on that?

04:14It is great,

04:15I think,

04:16each of them have,

04:17wherever they are,

04:18they have worked really hard,

04:20to where they are right now,

04:21and,

04:22God bless them,

04:23and,

04:24I just wish,

04:25the best for all of them.

04:27What is the difference between South and Hindi cinema,

04:30and,

04:31storytelling,

04:32treatment,

04:33or audience connect?

04:34I think,

04:35all three.

04:36I think,

04:37all three,

04:38but,

04:39slowly,

04:40those lines,

04:41I think,

04:42everywhere,

04:43the storytelling is becoming,

04:44a lot more powerful,

04:45and,

04:46I just hope,

04:47that,

04:48continues.

04:49The storytelling is very rooted,

04:50and emotional,

04:51so,

04:52do you need to apply this approach for Bollywood?

04:56If we apply,

04:57then,

04:58it is not a bad thing,

04:59who knows,

05:00it might actually work.

05:01Let's talk about the actresses,

05:03so,

05:04in the past,

05:05the actresses,

05:06like,

05:07Malani,

05:08Shri Devi,

05:09in the world,

05:10what legacy has left you,

05:11in your eyes?

05:12Oh,

05:13it's not even a question to ask,

05:15I think,

05:16it's such a wrong question,

05:17because,

05:18the legacy they have left,

05:19I don't think anybody can match up to that.

05:20See,

05:21the body of work,

05:22I mean,

05:23the names that,

05:25which have been mentioned,

05:26like,

05:27Bajan Timala Ji,

05:28or Hema Malini Ji,

05:29or Shri Devi Ji,

05:30also,

05:31see the body of work,

05:33that they have done,

05:34the amount of work,

05:35that they have done,

05:36the films,

05:37that they have done,

05:38the performances,

05:39that they have given,

05:40I think,

05:41it's unparalleled,

05:42no match,

05:43and,

05:44thank God,

05:45we had fantastic actors,

05:46like them,

05:47paving way,

05:48for a lot of,

05:49other actors,

05:50to follow their path.

05:51Do you think,

05:52that South actresses,

05:53today's South actresses,

05:54have left impact,

05:55like,

05:56the legends,

05:57do you mean?

05:58So,

06:00in their right,

06:02they are leaving their legacy behind.

06:04For sure.

06:05Especially,

06:06in the last few songs,

06:07or item numbers,

06:08in the female representation,

06:09people have,

06:10different options,

06:11in their opinion,

06:12for a film making,

06:13glamour,

06:14or objectification,

06:15in front of a fine line,

06:17left behind it.

06:19So,

06:20how much need to understand,

06:21and do you think,

06:22that the directors,

06:23must take some responsibility,

06:24seriously,

06:25to take that responsibility?

06:26To objectify females,

06:27emails,

06:28I'm saying,

06:29that's been coming,

06:30but,

06:31I think,

06:32it's better now,

06:33but,

06:34I don't want to say,

06:35that,

06:36item songs,

06:37or special numbers,

06:38whatever you want to use,

06:39that's completely closed,

06:41that's not possible,

06:42it is there,

06:44but,

06:45the songs,

06:48the special numbers,

06:49ladies,

06:50the heroines,

06:51they are doing,

06:52aesthetically shoot,

06:53and they are not shown,

06:55in a very vulgar way,

06:56so,

06:57I think,

06:58that is one,

06:59difference,

07:00I have seen,

07:01and I think,

07:02that should continue.

07:03that,

07:04I think,

07:05that,

07:06that,

07:07that,

07:08that,

07:09that,

07:10that,

07:11that,

07:12that,

07:13but,

07:14I will not,

07:15let's not discuss,

07:16more on that,

07:17I would just like to say,

07:18that,

07:19that,

07:20that,

07:21that,

07:22that,

07:23I think,

07:24it's right,

07:25and they are being paid,

07:26that also,

07:27so,

07:28there's nothing wrong,

07:29in the endroge cause,

07:30how good is your actor,

07:31that,

07:32an actor and treatment,

07:33I don't recommend,

07:35but,

07:36I will always say,

07:37this,

07:38that,

07:39whoever,
