‘I must be doing something right as an actor’
Sharvari, who is basking in the success of her recent horror-comedy, shared her thoughts on what the movie’s success means to her. During a recent media interaction, the actor said, “My journey has been very blessed because I think I must be doing something right as an actor. I don’t come from this industry and I spent around seven or eight years auditioning. During those days, I didn’t get any work and I worked as an assistant director because I wanted to be on set and learn.”
