Straightforward: No aim for fame

Sobhita Dhulipala wants people to judge her after seeing her work

MUMBAI: Actor Sobhita Dhulipala, who will be seen in Anurag Kashyap’s Raman Raghav 2.0, said she is not interested in being famous, but wants to be memorable.

“As an actor I want people to first watch my film and my work. As an individual I don’t want an identity, and I mean it with the best of intentions when I say this,” Sobhita said. “I am not interested in being famous. I want to be memorable and there is a thin line between the two.”

Sobhita won the Miss Earth title in 2013 and also featured on the popular Kingfisher calendar in 2014.

The actor, who will be seen alongside Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Vicky Kaushal, said she never felt sidelined in the film. “I feel the story is the most important thing in every film. Every character has its own importance and I never thought I will be sidelined. It’s an honour to be on the same screen with Nawaz,” Sobhita said.

Raman Raghav 2.0 narrates the story of the serial killer Raman Raghav, who went on a murder spree in Mumbai in the 1960s.  It features Nawazuddin as the serial killer, who was known by the name Psycho Raman, alongside Vicky, who plays a police officer. The film, which will mark Anurag’s first outing since the failure of Bombay Velvet, will hit screens on June 24.
