A still from Bob Biswas
Elaborating on her approach, Singh says, "Her presence needed to feel like home; my character had to have [that calming] presence and warmth. After his memory loss, Bob is falling in love with her all over again, and he doesn't want to let go of her. That's what I kept in the back of my mind while enacting every scene," she recounts.
While debutante Diya Annapurna Ghosh took on the directorial reins for the spin-off of Kahaani (2012), the story was written by Sujoy and Raj Vasant. Singh believes the writer-producer has a knack for creating women characters that one can identify with. "The most beautiful thing about Mary is that she keeps the family together. Her strength lies in her simplicity. She has pressure at work, she has a [co-worker] flirting, but she needs to [block] that and keep the house running. There is an air of practicality to her, which women will be able to relate with."
