Khatija Iqbal feels that negative character really connects with the audience
Khatija Iqbal has been a part of web series like “Ragini MMS: Returns”, “Inside Edge: 3” and “Jamai 2.0”, but the actress accepted that shows focussing more on bold content have a very limited life.
Sharing her views on whether we started with making a lot of bold content, she said, “Yes! It was quite a pathetic strategy because it only lasts a certain period. Some channels are already shutting down and I’m glad they are, after all, it’s a form of education you’re spreading.”
Khatija also confessed that OTT was introduced a bit late in India, and added, “It’s like wildfire now playing on everyone’s mobile phone. Given an option, I would choose OTT any day as it has a wider audience and besides these days all the films are released on OTT platforms after a theatrical release.”
The “Namaste England” actress also stated that she would prefer playing grey characters over others. She said, “I feel it really connects with the audience after all, everybody has something going on inside them, so why can’t a character help them understand themselves.”
What kind of roles are you looking forward to doing now? “I want to do action roles like playing a badass cop with fighting skills, and also comedy, romance, nerdy roles, and stuff that’s close to my nature or point-blank mean,” Khatija concluded.
