Basking in the glory of appreciation coming her way for her performance in the web film Serious Men alongside actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui, actor Indira Tiwari’s life has taken a new turn. Along with viewers, her colleagues, too, have been praising her.

“There are several film and web offers now, but I’m in no hurry. I don’t want to disrupt the graph that’s being created by choosing projects in a haste,” says Tiwari.

After passing out from National School of Drama in 2018, Tiwari played pivotal parts in multiple projects. “Two good films a year are good enough and going by that, my 2020 quota is complete. I’m prepared as an actor. In NSD, you get to learn everything — acting, singing, dancing. Humein sampoorn kalakaar banaya jaata hai. But my capabilities also need to get noticed,” shares Tiwari.

On discussion around biases outsiders face in the Hindi film industry, Tiwari explains, “Humein apni davedari pesh karni padhegi. If we don’t got selected in audition, without blaming others, we should find out where we’re going wrong.”

The actor also admits that one gets stereotyped easily, and there’s a set notion as to how a heroine should look. “If you apply makeup to give darker skin tone to fair actors rather than casting actors who’re dusky for certain roles, then why don’t you turn dusky actors fair with the same makeup? My skill set should matter, not my skin tone.”
