Divya Khosla Kumar: Watched several iconic films to prep for the role

Divya Khosla Kumar reveals she watched Aandhi several times as prep for her politician role in Satyameva Jayate 2

Where John Abraham plays a triple role as he fights corruption in Satyameva Jayate 2, Divya Khosla Kumar stands shoulder-to-shoulder with him. The actor, who returns to the big screen after over 15 years, essays the role of a politician in the vigilante action film. Director Milap Zaveri apparently developed her character as a tribute to the empowered women of today. Sharing her look from the film, Khosla says, “Milap had briefed me that my character [reflects] the strong and empowered women of today’s generation, who maintain the ideal work-life balance and stand for what’s right.”

Khosla claims that ahead of the actioner going on floors, she prepped extensively to become one with the character. “I watched several iconic films again, including Aandhi [1975], to understand how to portray my role to the best of my ability. It was tough for me as I had to put on weight for my role. I am glad to have got this chance to showcase a new side of me,” she says.
