 The role also demands it, looking sort of tougher in the film also. So any sort of preparation, obviously you must have gone for that. You were lifting much more in the gym. Did you miss out on the huge part, Kavees? Oh, I'm sorry. Right. Today on Candid Conversations with me is Tamanna Bhartia, the actor. She's coming up with a number of movie projects, but first we're going to talk about the fact that she has invested in Suga cosmetics and she's also partnered with them. So Tamanna, tell us about what made you sort of partner with Suga. You know, for me, makeup as a category is always, it's not something that can only be commercial. It is very close to my heart. It's extremely personal because it's something I use every single day of my life. And my bond with makeup is so unique because it's how I have discovered how to love myself, how to enhance what I have, how to work it through the days that I don't feel as good. So I understand the relevance that makeup has in my life and it has in so many women's lives as well. So when this opportunity came by, I thought it was something that meant a lot more to me than just a commercial association because I have lost brands in the past. But I feel like I want to be a part of, I want to be more deeply involved in a brand that actually reaches out to many more Indian people and it is made and catered towards Indian skin types and skin tones and also keeping our better conditions in mind. So I feel like this brand for me, you know, kind of picks all my boxes when it comes to what I want from a brand and hence I decided to have a more deeper association with this. And though, I mean, I come from a business background, like my father and my family from the business family, but I feel like because I was always so creatively inclined, I did not explore this side to myself, but now I kind of understand and I feel excited to kind of explore this as well. This was something where a brand endorsement was something that I often do with a lot of different brands. But with this, I felt like I and Puneeta had a chat and I told her about what are my vision is in terms of skin and makeup and just like life in terms of what I think when it comes to makeup and the way I want my audiences to know about me, not through just the work I do, but also through my interests which are largely in the beauty space. So yeah, makeup for me was something that was always very exciting and it always means a lot to me. So and of course I love what Vinita has been doing, like I love what she's done how beautifully she has, she's not only again, what I love is that her heart and her mind were together. It wasn't about just a business space for her, but it's something that she actually wants to reach out to a lot of people with her brand. And I can see that, I can see how certain brands reach much more further than many others only because of the kind of quality they're delivering and because they're actually catering to what people need at that point of time. I think like Indian people have certain skin types and have a certain requirement and I feel like Vinita really gets it. Moving on to, you have a trailer which released about two or three days back. I happened to see the trailer, a very interesting concept. It's about this woman who's from this village of Akharaz and then she becomes a lady bouncer. So clearly you are, I mean let's say compared to the kind of movies I've seen you in three, four years back, you are obviously, because the role also demands it, looking sort of tougher in the film also. So any sort of preparation, obviously you must have gone for that. You were lifting much more in the gym. Did you miss out on the huge part, Kaveel? Oh, I'm sorry. Also this is awfully cute while I'm being all, you know, Pahalwan. So that's actually the point of this film. Essentially, there's a lot of cliches that goes around people or women essentially who are physically strong. We've seen a lot of, we've seen a lot of emotionally strong characters that are made for women to play on screen. But whenever a woman is physically, supposed to be physically strong, it comes along with a lot of baggage, a lot of cliches, a lot of typicalities that people expect when they are going to watch. So like a Pahalwan, it means her muscles, like what should come out of it. She probably has short hair, she is extremely, she doesn't feel like how women feel. There are so many preconceived notions which I hope that Bubbly bouts her really break and does it with like, it's a fun film. It's a film that makes you smile. It's a film that makes you feel warm and makes you feel you know, hopeful in life. And that's what I think that's the kind of cinema I grew up on and what made me an actor. So when I heard the script of Bubbly, I really felt it was a really novel concept. B, it was made by Mother Vandalkar, so who's always only made the strongest films when it came to, you know, female actors. And all his films that were impactful were female lead and he is such a feminist himself. But I think what really took me by surprise was the fact that he has such a funny bone and he's such a chilled out and humble, happy, who lucky kind of person. Like I remember there used to be, the shot used to be ready and everybody was, everybody would just be sitting with him and having a chat and joking around with him. And like, you know, it was me and Sir's co-director. He used to be like that. So he is a, you know, a four-time national award-winning director. But I think what really, what really like amazed me to look at working with him was that he's so childlike. And, you know, he still has his innocence intact, which is why I think he's even made a film like Bubbly Bombs. Because Bubbly is a very pure character. It's a, it's an unabashed girl, you know, she's not really, not really contained in any capacity. So I feel like, I feel like the childlike nature in motherhood like helped Bubbly Bombs a kind of flower into what she needed to be. In some interview or somewhere, I don't know that you would want to be the bouncer for Rithik Kurshan and Vicky Kurshan. Why particularly these two? Why not Katrina? What if she feels left out? Katrina is a strong woman. I think she can, she can handle it herself. So I am not worried about Katrina. But if she can also handle himself. She has a heartfelt feeling for always crushing on Rithik Kurshan and Vicky Kurshan. So I think I would like to be there. Okay, okay. Okay, nice. Hopefully the girlfriends and rides are not watching this, but that's okay. I think they'll be excited. They'll be thrilled. Yeah. Now there's another one also coming up, Plan A, Plan B and a few other projects. So tell us about that also. Well, Plan A, Plan B was again, it was a COVID baby. I think it happened right when the first wave had gotten over and a difficult film to shoot because you know that time the circumstances were really hard. Like how we were filming with so many different like restrictions and regulations. It was a very hard film to shoot, but it was again, you know, it was, I thought the concept was really novel, you know, a matchmaker and a divorce lawyer when they're put into the same room or when they put up into the same workspace, what happens to them. So I felt like it's a cute story. It's going to be showcasing on Netflix. It's my second OTT film that's coming out in Hindi. And yeah, it's been, I've worked with Ritesh before, but I think this time it was really fun because I had all my scenes with Ritesh. And Khusha, I love Khusha. I mean, I'm a Khusha fan. And I keep telling her how I love her, whatever she does on social media. And yeah, we became friends while working on the book. Right. Thanks a lot for talking to us and all the best, of course, for your bubbly bouncer and plan A, plan B. And of course, your, the fact that you're stepping into an entrepreneur's shoes along with sugar cosmetics and take care. Thanks a lot for talking. Thank you. Thank you. Have a great day.
