| Urmila Matondkar will once again grace the Bollywood silver screen after her critically acclaimed performances in Bhoot and Pinjar. The latter is currently being screened at UCI Telford in Shropshire this month. In Ek Hasina Thi, Urmila's character transforms from a simple girl into a tough and hardened humanbeing after a stint in jail through no fault of her own. Speaking about her role in Ek Hasina Thi Urmila says, ' Ek Haseena Thi is a realistic, modern-day thriller. It is about this middle-class girl from Pune who comes to Mumbai. Life is good until something out of the blue happens without her knowledge.' Passionate about her roles, Urmila makes a point of getting under the skin of all her characters. She has the ability to express the various shades with or without the help of make up, voice pitch changes, expressions and her body language. In Ek Hasina Thi the audience will also get to experience various emotions (affection, sympathy and support) as Urmila undergoes character transformation. She is supported by Saif Ali Khan who has changed his entire look for the film. The film is now under post production ready for 2004 release in the UK. |
