In the fantastical series, Desai was seen alongside actor Naga Chaitanya. It is made by Vikram K. Kumar.

“To be honest, I really did not know what to expect. Because in all of these years, I’ve never delved into that side of the industry. The language is very new to me as I had never attempted it before. We travel to different states and are exposed to different cultures, but it is a different thing as compared to when you have to go and work there,” Desai tells us.

The 35-year-old adds, “I was very nervous about it. But it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life. I had heard people say nice things about people in the south industry, and today I can vouch for it. It is beautiful when the whole team is prepared for you and understands that you don’t know the language. They were patient and supportive. They didn’t make me feel any different about it”.

That combined with the feedback has instilled confidence in her to explore the zone further.
