Q. Cold Case is only your second Malayalam film. Considering you are from Kerala, what kept you away?
It was not a conscious decision to stay away or anything, but opportunities just never came up, and I didn't push either. I wish I had done a hell of a lot more in the south. Maybe people were under the impression, "Oh she's a VJ" or "She's only doing Hindi stuff or theatre" or whatever. Hopefully, things will change now that I've worked with two fab directors.
Q. Did you feel any pressure because this film is in your mother tongue?
