About Urvashi Sharma
Model-turned-actress Urvashi Sharma makes her debut in Bollywood with a film that is touted as the ‘most shocking thriller of the year’.The film is the Abbas-Mastan directed flick Naqaab (do check out the stills of the movie) stars Bobby Deol and Akshaye Khanna opposite Urvashi.
Urvashi has been signed for an eight-film contract with Tips Films –the production house that is also producing ‘Naqaab’.Urvashi started her career as a model and having been the face of Ponds, TBZ and Garnier, Urvashi soon conquered the modeling circuit by her sheer beauty, grace and professionalism. With striking features and poise she rapidly made her way into Bollywood and bagged the eight-film contract.
Despite ‘Naqaab’ being her very first film, Urvashi exudes terrific screen presence, which is, clearly noticed in the promos.Even though she is portraying a fundamental character in this thriller, Urvashi has maintained a very low profile in media. She has refrained from giving any interviews or photo ops to media prior the release of her debut, while most newcomers today are exposed way too much before the release of their debut.
So why is Urvashi who should be grabbing utmost media coverage right now kept under wraps? Ramesh Taurani, head honcho of Tips Music justifies this as a part of a strategy thought through by them. He explains that, 'Urvashi's character is integral to the central plot of the film, and by far we have kept her under wraps. We want the audience to judge her performance unbiased.'Urvashi has not only made an impact on the producers, but as a newcomer has also made a tremendous impact on her co-stars, Bobby and Akshaye.‘Naqaab’ revolves around Urvashi, although this character would have demanded a seasoned actress, Akshaye defends by saying, “'Naqaab' needed a girl with no image and Urvashi is the perfect find, her face and body language suits the part.”
Bobby concludes by saying, “It was a pleasure working with Urvashi and for a newcomer she is supremely confident and professional.”Only time will tell how much Urvashi stands up to the faith shown in her by the producers and her co-stars.
