If she sparked audience interest as Zoya in The Family Man, Shreya Dhanwanthary proved that she is in it for the long haul when she shone bright as Sucheta Dalal in Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story. The actor will soon be seen rubbing shoulders with Taapsee Pannu in Looop Lapeta, the official adaptation of German hit Run Lola Run (1998).

A source reveals, “Producers Atul Kasbekar and Tanuj Garg were looking for a strong actor to match up to Taapsee and Tahir [Raj Bhasin]. Shreya, having worked with them on Why Cheat India [2019], was the instant choice for the part of Julia.”  

Like most of us, Dhanwanthary is a fan of the Franka Potente-led thriller and counts herself lucky to be part of its remake. “The part offered was so delicious I couldn’t say no. I am always game for something new and crazy, and Looop Lapeta was just that,” says the actor, who shot for the Sony Pictures production from November to March.
