    Meenakshi Sundareshwar: Sanya Malhotra Reveals How She Prepared To Play A Tamilian For The Abhimanyu Dassani Starrer

    After winning hearts with her performance in Anurag Basu’s Ludo and dark comedy Pagglait, Sanya Malhotra is all set to shine on our television screens again in the much awaited Meenakshi Sundareshwar. The romantic comedy marks her third outing on streaming giant Netflix and this time the beauty will be seen as a Tamilian bride. Also starring Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota actor Abhimanyu Dassani, the film will tell us a unique story about a newlywed couple and the struggles they face in a long-distance marriage.

    In a recent chat with Mid Day, Sanya opened up about her prep for the film. She shared, “I wanted to get the dialect and tone right. [Although], the Tamil portion is not much, I didn’t want to offend anyone. I wanted to get the feel right.” The actress, who recently wrapped up the last schedule of Meenakshi Sundareshwar, went on to state that she took virtual lessons for her character. She explained, “My Tamil teacher is from Delhi. He helped me get the tonality [of pronunciation] right.”

    Sanya also shared that working with Abhimanyu was an ‘exciting experience’. However, she was anxious while shooting amid the pandemic for the first few weeks, but later realized that ‘a mask is a cool accessory’. Well, we can’t wait to see this fresh new jodi take over Netflix!
