Always want to do something different: Sobhita Dhulipala

Sobhita Dhulipala, who is best known for her role in ‘Raman Raghav 2.0’, recently talked about her transition to Tamil cinema and the portrayal of women in celebrated director Mani Ratnam’s period spectacle, ‘Ponniyin Selvan 2’.

Speaking during an interaction with the media in Delhi very recently, Dhulipala said, “This is my first Tamil film and the experience has been so exciting. I got a chance to work with Mani Ratnam sir and the amazing cast of the film. I relished every moment of it.”

“The kind of work I did in this movie is very different from the previous ones. As actors, we always want to do something different and this is what I got to do in this film,” the actor added.

In the film, Sobhita Dhulipala plays the character of Vaanathi, Princess of Kodumbalur. She is a shy but playful princess who is devoted to Ponniyin Selvan or Rajaraja I and wants to marry him.

Sobhita pointed out that the film shows the women in a different light as they are women ‘who are soft yet strong and decision-makers too’.

To this, her cast mate Trisha added, “Women in ‘PS-2’ are going to be stronger than they were in ‘PS-1’.”
