Very few horror films have left an impactful mark in the Bollywood industry. Anushka Sharma starrer Pari is definitely one of these films. Pari came out in 2018 and was a commercial and critical success among horror and regular fans alike.
Actress Anushka Sharma recently spoke of her experience of shooting Pari. "I was blown away with (the script of) Pari'and I knew immediately that I was producing this film. Pari presented me with a unique challenge that I never faced and I wanted to explore myself as an actor in a genre and a character that I had never done before and had not seen many explore too. So, for me, I wanted to set course towards an uncharted territory and entertain audiences and with something that they wouldn't expect," she said.
Sharma also went on to say that she has never let Bollywood standards hold her down. She added saying, " As an artist and a producer, I have only tried to do new things. I have never succumbed to pressure of any sort and I have relished at every opportunity to do something new and learn something dramatically different."
She also spoke about the film's success saying, "I was thrilled with (the success of) Pari... we did it with a genre-bending, intelligent horror film. I'm thankful for the love and appreciation that the film and I received from audiences and critics. It has always motivated me to push myself harder and entertain audiences more and more,"
