Set to play journalist in Gunehgaar, Prasad on what drew her to the drama

Shweta Basu Prasad
Shweta Basu Prasad has never settled for conventional cinema. After featuring in films like `Makdee` (2002)and `Iqbal` (2005), she has signed a string of clutter-breaking projects, including Zee Theatres’ teleplay, `Kusum Manohar Lele`, `Gudiya Ki Shaadi`, and `Gunehgaar`, which is available across top DTH platforms.
Discussing her work on `Gunehgaar`, she says, “[My character] Mrinalini is not easy to read, and that is what I found intriguing about her. Beyond the veneer of a confident, successful journalist, she is ambiguous. It was interesting to play a woman who is neither completely good, nor irrevocably bad.”
