Sushmita Sen is set to portray transgender activist Shreegauri Sawant in the upcoming web series titled “Taali,” directed by Ravi Jadhav. In an exclusive interview, the actress discussed her preparation for the role. She revealed that the director’s vision for “Taali” avoids the use of prosthetics.

The series aims to portray humanity authentically, without resorting to artificial portrayals that might overshadow the essence of the human experience or any particular community. So, according to his statement, ‘Sush you will have to perform out of your skin’, recalls about the actress from “Main Hoon Na”.

Sushmita Sen added, “So I was like, ‘Okay then what do I do?’. He said, ‘Let’s put on some weight’ – and no problem there, we did. We got an amazing make-up artist – Jeetu dada – to come in and try the beard, side burns, do all of that, and get into Gauri’s mode which we managed. But then the part that I am most excited about is that I have also played a man for the first time, that we don’t know yet, which is Ganesh. An effeminate man, and to get Ganesh’s look was a different job.”

Simultaneously, she is also in the process of preparing for the upcoming third season of the series “Aarya.” “I still have to dub for it, so we are finishing dubbing for that alongside Taali. I have greenlit two other projects, and the third one, which will be not me acting, but it’s based on my life. So look forward to that. I am not saying anything else, all in good time. I probably shouldn’t have said that too, but I am so excited about it so here it is. It’s not a biopic, you will see,”Sushmita Sen signs off.
