Genelia Deshmukh, the successful actress and producer, is also known for her loving partnership with Ritesh Deshmukh and her role as a super-mom to their kids, Riaan and Rahyl.After delivering a highly successful Marathi film, Ved, Genelia is making her return to Hindi cinema with the movie Trial Period.
Notably, this film marks her debut in the world of OTT platforms.
In an interview with a national media, Genelia shared that she was instantly drawn to the script of Trial Period.
Normally, she takes her time and reads scripts in intervals, but this one caught her attention immediately.She found it to be a fresh and unique concept, which sparked her interest right away.
One of the reasons Genelia chose Trial Period is the lack of family-friendly content on OTT platforms.She and Riteish believe that people miss the experience of gathering together and enjoying content suitable for all ages.
Genelia expressed how she often watches shows on OTT platforms but can’t involve her kids in the viewing as frequently.For her, watching films as a family is a cherished tradition that brings everyone together.
She hopes to see more films like that, including projects that cater to all age groups, much like her previous successful movie, Ved.
In Trial Period, Genelia portrays the character of Ana, a working single mother whose child yearns for a “father on rent.” Genelia revealed that her real-life motherly instincts greatly helped her in understanding and portraying her on-screen character.She believes that such motherly roles should ideally be played by mothers themselves because only parents truly comprehend the little things they do for their children and the depth of their relationship.
The film Trial Period will be available for streaming on Jio Cinema from July 21st.Genelia is excited about her return to Hindi cinema and is optimistic about the impact of family-oriented content on OTT platforms.She aims to contribute to the celebration of movies as a family experience, just like it has been for generations.
