Mrunal Thakur: Genre Trumps Language in Acting
4 Apr
Summary
- Mrunal Thakur believes film genre, not language, shapes performance.
- Action films require focus on body language and physical stance.
- Thakur learned on-set physicality from co-star Adivi Sesh.
Actress Mrunal Thakur recently discussed her approach to acting across Hindi and Telugu cinema, emphasizing that a film's genre significantly influences performance more than language barriers. She noted that genre dictates crucial elements like pacing and emotional delivery through dialogue pauses and physical stances.
For her upcoming action film 'Dacoit,' Thakur elaborated on the importance of body language and physicality. She shared that she received guidance from co-star Adivi Sesh on specific stances and postures to effectively portray vulnerability or other character traits. This focus on physical storytelling is a key difference compared to more dialogue-intensive dramas.
The film 'Dacoit,' directed by Shaneil Deo, is slated for a worldwide release on April 10. It has been filmed simultaneously in Telugu and Hindi, reflecting a trend towards bilingual production to reach broader audiences. The movie also features Anurag Kashyap and Prakash Raj in supporting roles.
