Adah Sharma on Her Role
Before the theatrical release of "Bastar: The Naxal Story," Adah Sharma spoke about the impact of the film and her character. She shared how the film deeply affected her, saying, "As an actor, if the role doesn't touch me, my performance would be very plastic. I need to feel the character to deliver a genuine performance."
In the movie, Adah portrays IPS Neerja Madhavan. Despite its strong subject matter, the film did not perform as well at the box office as her previous film, "The Kerala Story."
"Bastar: The Naxal Story" offers a gripping narrative and powerful performances. The film's journey from theatres to OTT platforms will allow a wider audience to experience its impactful story. Watch it on ZEE5 and OTTplay Premium starting May 17.
