9 Jun
Summary
- Bendre found strength in intense emotional roles like 'Raakh'.
- She learned to engage emotions without taking them home.
- Acting openly and protecting oneself are not mutually exclusive.

Bollywood actress Sonali Bendre shared insights from her role in the intense drama 'Raakh,' directed by Prosit Roy. Bendre, known for her versatile performances, found herself naturally drawn to lighter emotional roles in recent years.
The project 'Raakh' challenged her to delve into a space of intense emotion, a departure from her recent choices. She expressed surprise and reassurance at her ability to connect with these difficult emotions without letting them affect her personal life.
This experience led Bendre to a significant personal discovery: protecting oneself as an individual and remaining open as an actor are not contradictory. She found she could explore uncomfortable emotions while trusting her capacity to disengage when filming concluded.
'Raakh,' starring Ali Fazal and Aamir Bashir, is a mystery and thrill-packed series premiering on Prime Video on June 12. Written and co-directed by Anusha Nandakumar and Sandeep Saket, it promises a gripping narrative for viewers.
