In recent developments within the Kannada film industry, actress Thejaswini Sharma expresses her enthusiasm for the evolving landscape that increasingly spotlights women. Currently engaged in the shooting of “VIP,” directed by newcomer Brahma, Thejaswini notes the industry’s shift towards more female-centric films.
“The spotlight is gradually shifting onto women, and it’s exciting,” says Thejaswini. She acknowledges the positive changes where heroines are portrayed as substantial characters rather than mere glam dolls. Despite this progress, she emphasizes that there is still a considerable journey ahead to ensure female actors receive their deserved recognition.
“The change has begun, and I hope very soon we reach a stage where narratives thrive on female characters,” she asserts optimistically.
Known for her selective approach to projects, Thejaswini prioritizes the story, narrative, and the director’s clarity about her role. She steers away from clichéd roles, emphasizing the importance of quality over quantity in her choices.
In her upcoming role in the film “VIP,” Thejaswini plays the character Sneha, describing her as bubbly, simple, and extremely confident—traits that resonate with her real-life personality.
Reflecting on working alongside seasoned actors like Vasishta Simha, Thejaswini highlights the advantages of collaborating with high-performing artists. She explains that such collaborations motivate her to push boundaries and improve her craft. In her next project opposite Vasishta Simha, Thejaswini recognizes the valuable learning experiences gained from observing how he adapts to sequences with subtle changes on the spot.
