Rasika Dugal: Working on an improvised film is an actor’s delight
Actress Rasika Dugal, who is awaiting the release of her upcoming film ‘Fairy Folk’, feels that working on an improvised film brings absolute delight to an actor as they get to push the envelope of their craft.

“I have been very moved by her poetry and very intrigued by her biographies. Here is a woman who lived life on her own terms- acknowledged her obsessions and passions and nurtured them fearlessly. It would be a dream come true for me to get an opportunity to portray her if a film about her is ever made. I have been manifesting this for quite some time. I hope the universe is listening.Mirzapur

Delhi Crime
Elaborating on how she prepared for her character Neeti Singh, she said, “In season 1, I had requested the team that I shadow an officer to gain more insight and details about being a police officer. I shadowed a trainee police officer then and I got in touch with her again for the second season.”
