My work balanced mix of lead, supporting roles: Swara Bhaskar

Darpan News Desk IANS, 16 May, 2016 12:02 PM
    Actress Swara Bhaskar, who is currently riding high on the success of her first solo hit film "Nil Battey Sannata", says her filmography features a balanced mix of lead and supporting roles.
     
    "My body of work has an equal balance of lead and supporting roles," Swara told IANS. 
     
    "For every 'Tanu Weds Manu' series, 'Raanjhanaa' and 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo', there is 'Listen Amaya', 'Machhli Jal ki Rani Hai' and now 'Nil Battey Sannata'," she added.
     
    The actress, who holds a Master's degree in Sociology from the Jawaharlal Nehru University, shared that the movies in which she has played a supporting role were blockbusters and thus people remember those.
     
    But she says more solo roles are in the offing.
     
    "My next 'Anaarkali Aaraahwaali' is also a solo title part," she said.
