New Delhi:
Malavika Mohanan is all set to wow her fans again with her upcoming filmย Yudhra. In the movie, she plays the role of Nikhat, Yudhra’s (played by Siddhant Chaturvedi) girlfriend, who helps him combat his anger issues. The film is scheduled to hit cinema screens on September 20.ย Ahead ofย the release, the film’s director, Ravi Udyawar, spoke about Malavika’s character, describing her as a “strong woman.” He said, โMalavika works hard. And I knew who this character I had in mind for her was. The character isย a very strongย woman, written by us,” as quoted by Filmfare.
Ravi Udyawar also shared that Malavika Mohanan’s character is a soft girl, who isย strong minded. He added, โIn an action film, you often believeย that theย female will be a soft girl. And she is that soft, beautiful girl. But she is at the same time veryย strong minded. She knows exactly what she wants. And that’s the character I’ve written for her. The character begins with being a young girl who shifts to becomeย a really smart, confident girl. She also goes through emotional maturity – and that is what I wanted to capture.”
After the release ofย Thangalaan, Malavika Mohanan revealed that her role inย Yudhraย is quite different. โThe film I have done with Siddhant Chaturvedi is produced by Excel Entertainment and that’s releasing next month. We will just put out the trailer in a few days. In comparison to Thangalaan, it is a whole different world. That’s also exciting for me. All of these roles are so differentย from each otherย that it is nice for an actor to be a part of so many versatile films. I hope more makers see me so that they see how I fit into different roles,” she told News18.
Yudhra has been bankrolled by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s Excel Entertainment. In addition to the leading duo, the film also features Raghav Juyal and Gajraj Rao.ย
