Actress Anupriya Goenka shared how she accepted a🃏nd embraced the dark side of her character, Shankari De🎀vi in the upcoming power-packed series 'Sultan of Delhi'.
Pl♉aying an antagonist is beyond challenging in today’s day and age. One can seem to empathise with their character once they understand th🦂e emotions and backstory attached to it.
Talking about her character in the series, Anupriya said: “Shankari is one of the m🍒ost interesting characters that I have played so far. On the face of it, she comes off as a completely negative character, who has ulterior motives, and can use anybody and everybody to serve her purpose, but her vulnerable side🥀 is unknown to the audience.”
“With time, I learned 🅷to embrace the dark side of her as she deals with life without justifying anything beyond a point,” she said.
Anupriya is known for her works in ‘Ti🍷ger Zinda Hai’, ‘Padmaavat’, ‘War’, ‘Criminal Justice’, ‘Aashram’ among many others.
“I have always played very rig🧜hteous characters, so this one was very interesting because she can be bad without any redemption, and I would like to believe that she has gone through hard times in her life which has taught her lessons,” shared the 36-year-old actress.
Anupriya added: “She realises that for her to become her ow✱n self, men in the era would have to be manoeuvred and manipulated.”
