“'Rest Of The Night' is about being stuck mentally and emotionally. It’s about relationships and how they give us so much but also take away so much. It’s a story of a woman unable to move on and find closure. The film emphasises the need to take care of one’s mental health and how it’s important to express and share your emotions," the actor-producer said in a statement.
As a performer, Kirti said the short film gave her an opportunity to push the envelope, she says, “It’s a complex character and I love playing such roles. I am, as an actor, always trying to push the envelope and find a deeper meaning in my performances.” “Rest Of The Night" also features actor Vishwas Kini.
Kirti was recently seen in the third season of series "Four More Shots Please!". She will also star in her debut feature production "Nayeka".
