Mumbai, Sep 18 : Television actress Aanchal Goswami has opened up on how she is inspired by Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt and her performance in the 2014 Imtiaz Ali directorial ‘Highway’.
“When I first saw ‘Highway’, I was completely blown away by Veera (Alia’s character in the film).It was a treat for my eyes to see a character so raw, and Alia Bhatt nailed it with so much ease.Since then, I’ve actually turned to Alia for inspiration on numerous occasions.In fact, when I’m preparing for any character, I watch ‘Highway’ only to observe the profoundness of her role,” Aanchal said.
“With hardly any makeup, she brought out that rusticity in her look which I believe is not everybody’s cup of tea.Moreover, I keep wondering how flawlessly this woman plays different characters, as if she is actually living it.I also try living my characters on shows and give my best.Hope I can perform as flawlessly as her someday,” she added.
On the work front, Aanchal currently features in the Zee TV soap ‘Rishton Ka Manjha’, where she plays a bright and chirpy middle-class Bengali girl named Diya
