Kirti Kulhari spills the beans on her role in The Girl On The Train remake

Last seen in multi-starrer Mission Mangal (2019), Kirti Kulhari is currently awaiting the release of her next film The Girl On The Train. As the title clearly suggests, the movie is an official remake of the 2016 American mystery thriller drama of the same name, directed by filmmaker Tate Taylor.

Actress Parineeti Chopra plays the lead role in the Hindi remake of the Hollywood biggie. However, Kirti Kulhari is also set for a crucial part in the flick. Talking to a publication, the actress spills the beans on her character in the film and says, “I play a British cop, an investigating officer. My look is something that has never been seen before in Indian cinema. This role is super exciting and it is going to be very thrilling as well.”


The actress goes on to add that she learned kick boxing to slide into the skin of her character. “I learned some kick boxing before I went on to the shoot, so as to bring in a little hardness and sharpness in my attitude as a cop,” she concludes.

Kulhari can be currently seen in Amazon Prime Video’s much-talked-about female-buddy webseries Four More Shots Please! Season 2 (2020). And if reports are to be believed, she has come onboard to headline the second season of Hotstar Specials’ successful courtroom drama, Criminal Justice (2019).

“Kirti has been finalised, but the paperwork etc. has now been stalled due to the current situation. She will be signed on for the show once the lockdown is lifted,” a reliable source had earlier informed the same publication.

'Akka' review: Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte’s battle exposes an uncomfortable truth about power

Highlights

  • Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte lead Netflix's five-episode crime drama set in a fictional south Indian region ruled by an 800-year-old sisterhood.
  • The series explores whether women in positions of absolute power can avoid reproducing the oppressive systems traditionally associated with patriarchy.
  • Strong performances, sharp dialogue and stylised storytelling make Akka engaging, although its political ideas are not always fully explored.

What happens when women take control of a world traditionally dominated by men? Does changing the gender of those in power automatically create a fairer society? Netflix's Akka, led by Keerthy Suresh and Radhika Apte, explores these uncomfortable questions through a violent crime saga built around an 800-year-old sisterhood.

Set in the fictional south Indian region of Perunuru, the five-episode series follows a powerful matriarchal community that controls the criminal underworld and the lucrative gold and illicit liquor trades. While its premise offers an interesting reversal of conventional crime dramas, the story gradually reveals that replacing male rulers with women does not necessarily dismantle the systems of oppression they inherit.
