 “This is a film that doesn’t have a lot of cast. Produced by Gouri Krishna, it’s just me and the film that is being shot in a forest. There are no songs and dance sequences. This is a film that needs to be shot in such a time. We will be wrapping it up in a single schedule and I have also signed a couple of other projects,” she begins. The actress, who has worked across Tamil, Hindi, Telugu and Kannada film industries says that it is one of the best times to be an artiste. “With OTT platforms coming to the fore, actors like me who would want to experiment can cash in on this opportunity,” she adds. She quickly tells us that films releasing in theatres are something that any actor would like to see. “We all like to see the audience going to the theatres to watch us on the big screen. Whenever a film releases in theatres there is this butterfly in the stomach every Friday. But times are changing and I am all in for a change. At the end of the day it’s the producer’s decision,” Adah says.

Having been a part of offbeat scripts like 1920, Kshanam and the Commando franchise Adah says that she is glad to have played a huge part in films that she was roped in. “I try to do something different with each of my film. In, my debut film 1920, the audience saw me in a different makeover and a different role, they were appreciative of it. I couldn’t have agreed for anything lesser in my subsequent films. Even in Commando 2 and 3, I played a girl, who beats up guys, and make fun of them. It is usually the other way round, women in cinema are the butt of jokes. If I could change it or break the jinx, I am happy,” she smiles. The actress was last seen in Tamil in Charlie Chaplin 2 in 2017. “I recently shot for a Tamil ad and that has struck the right chord with the audience. My ads there have made a familiar face to Tamil people,” she remarks.

Lockdown has been the same for Adah. “I have always been this way so I don’t see much of a difference. Except for the fact that our maid couldn’t come home and mom and I do the cooking and all the other household chores. Apart from that I have been training to keep myself fit. I also have the time now to play the piano for an hour,” she sums up.
