Parvathy is one of the most talented actresses down south and has made a name for herself in three of the four south cinema industries. The actress is now making her debut in Bollywood with 'Qarib Qarib Singlle'. Directed by Tanuja Chandra, the film also stars Irrfan Khan in the lead.
When asked how she became a part of the project, the actress said, "Getting 'Qarib Qarib Singlle' was destiny for me as I wasn’t strategising a career plan in any industry. I have never done that. When I got Tanuja’s (Chandra) message directly to ask me if I would be a part of the film, it felt great. She came down to Kochi with writer Ghazal to meet me as I was stuck at a shoot. For me, that was a great deal of respect to be given to an actor. My hope was that I would love the script as well and I loved it immediately after listening to it. The dates also worked out. It was quite fateful."
Talking about Irrfan Khan, she said, "There is no better co-actor you can find. He is someone who has the star value but is essentially an actor who wants to invest in creating that film. I can say I found a really great partner in the movie-making process."
When asked if she finds any difference between the south industries and Bollywood, Parvathy said, " The actual process of movie making changes from director to director and depends on how they want to tell the story. That is not related to an industry or a culture; it’s just sensibility and vision. There are a couple of things that are different in execution. But again, that depends on the budget and the audience demography. My job as an actor is the same everywhere: reading a script, understanding the character and giving a truthful performance. That’s why I don’t believe in strategising for any particular industry because the job is always the same."
