“But somehow it’s (Chhorii) changed audiences and trade perception of me, a mixture of that is bringing more scripts that way,” the actress said. Chhorii is the remake of director Vishal Furia’s 2017 Marathi film Lapachhapi, which revolves around a pregnant woman named Sakshi, whose unborn child is targeted by evil spirits.
The sequel, which will release on April 11 on Prime Video, will pick up the story of Sakshi from where it left off in the first film and will bring back some key characters as well as introduce new scares.
Known for massy entertainers like Pyaar Ka Punchnama, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety and Dream Girl, Bharuccha said, “Chhorii is the most demanding movie in her career. “For me doing a film like this, I don’t think it’s just me headlining it but it’s the scope I had as an actor to do in that film which none of the other films before that gave me. It didn’t give me so much space, and room. It didn’t put me in those situations, which honestly were unreal for me as a person.
