<p>Actor Adah Sharma made her acting debut with Vikram Bhatt’s film ‘1920’. Little did she know then that a horror flick would open the door of success for her in the film industry. The movie was not just a box-office hit, but also earned her much appreciation from film enthusiasts. <br /><br />Later, she went on to act in films like ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’ and ‘Phhir’ and was last seen in ‘Commando 2’. In a conversation with Surupasree Sarmmah, the bubbly actor talks about her journey. <br /><br />The film ‘1920’ marked the beginning of your career. How has your journey been since then?<br />I am very fortunate to have started off with a horror film and a role like that, because it is very difficult for a person from a non-filmy background to get a great role. With ‘1920’, I proved myself and everyone had faith in my acting skills. I have done films of different genres and have been showcasing a new side of myself in each. It has been a versatile journey. <br /><br />Any challenging roles till now...<br />Every film has a different character and is challenging in itself, but ‘1920’ was quite tough. It required a lot of physical and mental strength to achieve the character. <br /><br />You have also acted in a few South Indian films. Do you find the two industries quite different?<br />They are different but I guess it’s the difference that keeps me motivated to be a part of both of them. <br /><br />One of your most memorable characters...<br />It has to be the character of Hayathi from the Telugu film ‘Heart Attack’ and that of Bhavna Reddy from <br />‘Commando 2’. The two characters are very similar to what I am in real life and that’s what makes them memorable. <br /><br />Any genre in particular that you would like to explore...<br />I feel my forte is love stories. There is so much to explore in this genre. <br /><br />Your interests apart from acting...<br />I am both an adventurous and a creative kind of person. I like to paint and have painted on my clothes and shoes. That apart, I love watching films and reading. <br /><br />If you are a new addition to a bookshelf, which book would you be?<br />An encyclopedia on the living creatures of the deep ocean. <br /><br />Something about you that the world doesn’t know...<br />I can fly...no seriously, I can fly.(Laughs)</p>
