Sonakshi Sinha Discusses The Differences And Similarities Between Working On Film And OTT Project
Sonakshi Sinha discusses the differences and similarities between working on an OTT project and a film, while also sharing how she came to sign her first OTT series, Dahaad. "Honestly, as an actress, I see it as part of my job. I didn’t view it any differently. In fact, I signed Dahaad, my first OTT project, before the lockdown. The selection process was similar to choosing any other movie—I loved the role, I loved the premise. Since it was a longer format, it felt like signing three movies at once, but there wasn’t any major difference. As an actor, my job is to perform, whether it's on the big screen, an OTT platform, or any stage, and that’s exactly what I’m doing."

Speaking about her preparation for her characters in Dahaad and Heeramandi, she said, “Honestly, my method is that I don’t have a set method be it Dahaad or my other project. I arrive on set, face the camera, and that’s when the character comes alive for me. It’s hard to explain, but having a strong imagination really helps."

The actress further quipped, "Being observant—taking note of what you see and hear, picking up on certain nuances, and applying them when needed—that's how I approach it. I observe people and learn from them. Of course, directors are a huge help when preparing for a character, especially one you're unfamiliar with. Speaking specifically about Fareedan in Heeramandi, I would give credit to Sanjay Leela Bhansali sir."
