Mumbai, Dec 28 (NationPress) Actress Tridha Choudhury has recently shared insights into the strategic decisions she has made while exploring opportunities across different film industries.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, she mentioned her awareness that participating in nude scenes for a Hollywood project could potentially limit her future prospects, particularly in Bollywood and beyond. Tridha expressed her concern that such a choice could result in being typecast or missing out on numerous other roles. Having already ventured into international projects, she believes there are alternative ways to gain global exposure without compromising her long-term career goals.
Tridha Choudhury articulated, “Had I engaged in a Hollywood project featuring nude scenes, it would have obstructed many of my subsequent opportunities. I was conscious of this. Therefore, since I have already explored the Hollywood landscape, I feel there are other avenues to pursue without jeopardizing my ongoing journey in Bollywood or elsewhere.”
On the professional front, Tridha made her cinematic debut with Srijit Mukherji's “Mishawr Rawhoshyo” in 2013 and later garnered acclaim on television through the StarPlus series “Dahleez,” which premiered in March 2016. In 2020, she starred in notable roles in Amazon Prime Video's “Bandish Bandits” and the popular MX Player series “Aashram.”
Her latest appearance was in Kapil Sharma's comedy-drama film “Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2.” The film also featured Hira Warina, Parul Gulati, and Ayesha Khan.
When queried about her motivation for taking on this film and whether it signified a conscious shift from intense or bold roles to comedy, Tridha responded to IANS, “I believe actors gravitate toward roles where the script possesses strength. If you have seen Ashram, you may have noticed how Babita’s character evolves. Her narrative arc becomes significantly political, and that transformation was integral to the writing.”
“Since then, I have not felt pigeonholed as 'bold'; however, at times, the roles offered have leaned more towards being eye-candy. Regardless of whether I’m delivering a punch or sharing a kiss, both actions are still part of the performance. Ultimately, everything we engage in is acting. Comedy presents a unique challenge. This film allowed me to delve into that realm, and I'm continuously learning.”
