Netflix recently launched many new faces into Bollywood with one of its latest Indian films titled Guilty. One of the actresses from the show Akansha Ranjoon Kapoor is thrilled at the audience's response to her film. Guilty is a film that deals with sexual harassment among a bunch of college-going students. It focuses on the #Metoo movement and also stars Kiara Advani in the lead. Ruchi Narain has directed the film. Akansha plays the role of a small-town girl who gets caught up in a sexual harassment case.
Kapoor recently sat down for an interview with Hindustan Times. The actress said that now is the best time for anyone to be an actor in Bollywood. She said that the film industry no longer cares about your family background or even your body type.
The recently debuted actress said "it's such a great time to be an actor. Nobody cares about how pretty you are or the kind of body type that you have. What matters is if you are a good actor. The Dangal (2016) girls (Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra) are doing so well. If you are a good performer, you’ll be respected for your work and you’ll eventually get more work."
"I auditioned for the film without knowing much about the project other than the fact that it was a digital film. Once I got shortlisted, they asked me to come for a meeting and then told me that I was locked. I had to wait for only 13 days as against any other film where you need to wait for a month or so,” she added.
