The actress talks about her upcoming film
Manisha Koirala will soon be seen back on the big screen after a hiatus. She will be seen in the film Dear Maya and the actress doesn’t like calling the film her comerback.
She was quoted saying, “Well this movie has an interesting script. This is not my second innings. I was always here… And I am around, but yes I will do one film in a year.”
She added, “You have to evolve with time. I feel one should age gracefully, tastefully and with acceptance… So that is really important. I feel one should evolve with the time.”
Manisha said that she wants Bollywood actresses to push the boundaries rather than just focusing on glamour.
“We had it (path-breaking roles) in the times of Smita Patil and Shabana Azmi and in between we lost it… By the grace of god, I got a few opportunities and I would like that to be continued. I want young actresses to do meatier roles and not just only focus on glamour, but doing substantial, good, performance-oriented roles,” she added.
