bringing out something unique to his every character despite working in the same genre at times Speaking exclusively to IANS Saif said that when one is true to themselves a part of the uniqueness of their personality ends up reflecting in the character as well making it refreshing He was asked There are so many crime dramas across platforms As actors what efforts do you put in to bring out something more from your sideSharing his views Saif told IANS For me I think the idea is to play the person not just like a cop So people are obviously differentIf I have to do the same thing again you know the rooted cop with the dialect somehow the director creates a different environment thats where he comes in The producers also have to figure out how the show is going to look different It must be difficult because there are a lot of people who like watching crime dramas he further went on to explainI guess if you are true to yourself there is nobody like you So hopefully we all are true to ourselves and bring a little of ourselves to the character concluded the Omkara actorSaifs Kartavya costar Rasika Dugal echoed the same sentiment saying I feel even if its the same genre everybodys script is different no two scripts are like each other and there is a new voice telling a new story and there are new people putting in their new experiences their own aspirations their own prejudices into the work So it turns out to be different every single timeSo the worry is never that we should try and do something different the Mirzapur actress concludedTalking about Kartavya Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh Director Original Films Netflix India added It is rooted and emotionally truthful while also spanning genres and perspectives It has the tense unpredictability of a gripping crime thriller but at its heart itâs a deeply human story about a man torn between his duty towards his work his responsibility towards his family and the emotional consequences of difficult choices

may no longer have the same stamina ambition or professional driveSpeaking about the stereotypes Rubina said âStudies show that 62 percent of women do not resume work after pregnancy because society is unwelcoming towards a woman who has just given birth At times the industry looks down upon her and thinks stamina will not be there strength will not be there there will be no ambition And if there is no ambition then maybe she wonât be able to prove herself If she wonât be able to prove it then keeping her in this project will be harmful for us These are the thoughts women are constantly judged withâThe actress further explained that this societal pressure often makes women doubt their own capabilitiesâSociety never gives us that space to just be It never says âitâs okay we will not judge you even if you make a mistakeâ There is always this constant pressure and not every woman may be equally strong or able to navigate her own path with confidenceâRubina who has embraced motherhood while continuing her professional journey added that she considers her current phase an opportunity to set an example for other womenâWhereas I with my journey since I am blessed that I get this opportunity to show myself that there is still more that I want to achieve There is a path that I want to pave for myself and my fellow contemporaries who are contemplating that after becoming a

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar who too has a flat next to her buildingâA lot has happened here that defies logic or explanation Even Akshay Kumar owns a flat here next building just saying fyiââThus
