“People ask me if I am purposely picking serious, intense stories to which my answer is no. As an artist, I want to experiment. Don’t typecast me, please,” she pleads.

When asked her opinion about content-based stories, Ruhani Sharma notes, “True, content is king and it speaks volumes. You don’t have to be a star to do a meaty role.”

A native of Himachal Pradesh, Ruhani cites an example of how actors automatically get into the character’s psyche the moment they do a look test.

“The costumes help you understand the character by 30-40 percent. The moment I wore khaki, my walking style changed. It wasn’t planned and the director was happy with the outcome.”

Regarding the story of HER, the actor says, “The investigation becomes personal to her at a point. There are quite a few action sequences for which I went through weapon training.”

HER was shot in eight months. It has two songs; one is the title track and the other is a romantic song. Vikas Vasishta of Cinema Bandi (2021) plays her love interest in the flick.

“I have Saindhav, Sree Rangneethulu, two more Telugu films and a Hindi project on cards. I am not taking a break anymore,” she signs off, sporting a wide smile.
