<p>Actor Sushmita Joshi, who is excited about her debut role in the recently released ‘Run Antony’, has already signed her next movie and is doing the homework for it. </p>.<p>For the untitled project by director Kumaresh, this youngster has been told to do research and prepare for her role. In a candid chat with Tini Sara Anien, she talks about her role in the movie and the preparation process.<br /><br />How does it feel now that your first film is out?<br /><br />As someone who just did her debut role, I’m nothing short of excited. The movie happened by mere coincidence. I never planned to be an actor. I was a model and acting classes were held as part of the training. I was never able to do them, as I couldn’t randomly act. After this, someone from Raghu Shastry’s team saw my picture and asked me to audition and that is how the role happened. The movie was a solid training ground for me.<br /><br />How different is your second movie?<br /><br />In ‘Run Antony’, I played the role of a vibrant and bold young girl who wasn’t scared of speaking her heart out and taking a bold stand. But in this movie, I play the third lead — the role of a young college-going girl, who is innocent and meek. She is a shy person. <br /><br />The director wanted a fresh face and someone who was inexperienced and willing to learn from the experiences of people around. <br /><br />There is a set of guidelines that the movie has, since it is based of a novel. <br /><br />The importance of your role...<br /><br />Since it is a novel-based story, each character, including the friends and the smallest characters, have a big role in the project. <br /><br />What is the homework that you’re doing?<br /><br />I play the role of a young girl who is very emotional. I was asked to watch certain movies and take lessons from certain characters so that my performance would be smooth.<br /><br />Even my body language will matter. How my character reacts is important and that is going to be the most challenging part.<br /><br />The challenges you are expecting from the movie...<br /><br />I could associate to my role in ‘Run Antony’ because I am a bold girl who speaks her heart out. I am not brash, but I am not shy either. Playing a character with such innocence (in the new project) will be a challenge. Also, in real life, I’m a third-year fashion student from NIFT. I have to make sure that I finish my course smoothly. This, while balancing the role of a reel-life student, will be interesting. <br /><br />Your biggest worry...<br /><br />(Smiles) I was the youngest on the set and sometimes that can be a little unnerving. Also, I need to perform well in the presence of other experienced actors like Chethan and Meghana Raj. </p>
