Mumbai, February 14 – Actress Mrunal Thakur, who is gearing up for the release of her upcoming film ‘Do Deewane Sehar Mein’, has shed light on her character and her thought process in the film, and how similar some of these experiences were for her personally.
The actress spoke with news agnecy IANS during the film's promotions, stating that she realized during the narration that her character, Roshni, is someone who hides behind glasses.
The actress told IANS, "When Abhiruchi was narrating the story in Ravi sir's office, I was just sitting there, and she said something very beautiful. She said that Roshni always tries to hide behind glasses. And there were such moments in my life, maybe there were times where even if I knew the answer, I would just stay quiet. That was something that I resonated with Roshni the most, even Shashank's character in that case, because a lot of people don't have that confidence. What they appear to be from the outside, is not necessarily how they feel inside".
She further added, "And I just feel like I had to be a part of this movie because there are so many people like Roshni and Shashank who are dealing with their own struggles and insecurities, and they're just not able to overcome those barriers. Because they have the talent and the ability, but they have this internal doubt that they are not good enough or that they are not better than their sister or that they are less. So in these comparisons, we always forget ourselves. We don't want to go out there."
"We might feel that if we get insulted, we are scared of embarrassment. We are scared of making mistakes. And I want to give a big shout out to my father, because no matter what stage, he's always stood by me. Exactly how Roshni stands by Shashank, and Shashank stands by Roshni. He's always told me one thing, you are the reason why you are not able to progress," she added.
‘Do Deewane Sehar Mein’ is set to release in theaters on February 20, 2026.
