It was called Chitti Dudh Kudi which means a girl who is as white as milk and I ain't that but I was playing her and I was really lightened up in the movie."
SHARMILA TAGORE ON PLAYING A GAY CHARACTER IN GULMOHAR
Veteran actress Sharmila Tagore, who recently returned to acting after 13 years with Disney+ Hotstar's family drama Gulmohar, recently opened up about playing a gay character. Admitting that she was nervous, Sharmila said she was surprised to see the audience's reaction. Speaking to Roger Ebert.com about it, Sharmila said, "[I felt] a little bit of apprehension, but the way they have dealt with it in the script is very subtle, not in your face. And I've been surprised, really. The audience has really accepted it. They're okay with it. It's not being underlined, or underscored, or an in-your-face kind of statement. It's kind of an internal evolution of a person. So it's at that level."
