FC Disruptors: Sakshi Tanwar

Actor: Mai: A Mother’s Rage

Team FC

In an industry that is notoriously obsessed with youth and nubility, especially when it comes to women actors, Sakshi Tanwar broke the mould as Sheel Chaudhary in Mai. A well-known face from the world of candy-floss television serials, Mai gave Tanwar an opportunity to show her range as she went from docile and vulnerable mother to accidental serial killer. Among the stand-out moments of Mai are seeing Tanwar flip from a conventional housewife to a grimly-determined woman on a mission to avenge her daughter’s death. Sheel’s character arc is far from conventional and it is made credible by the power of Tanwar’s performance.
