Anupriya Goenka on Asur 2: Acting is the one time I feel meditative

In a recent media interaction, Anupriya Goenka who plays the role of Naina Nair in the second season of Asur: Welcome To The Dark Side. The actress spoke about her experience working in the thriller show.

"I am an overthinker and my mind goes on constantly talking. I feel acting is the one time when I feel meditative. Between action and cut, no matter what is happening in my life, I'm just there in the present moment," she said.

"That is the most fulfilling feeling. It's almost as if you breathe through it (acting) and everything in life is justified for the purpose of acting - the emotions, the good, the bad. I have started searching for new experiences because I want to be a better performer and push myself," Goenka added

Coming to her role as Naina, Goenka also spoke about how closely she relates to the character.

"There is a lot of similarity between me and Naina. I relate to her in the sense that I'm also very strong-headed , I'm very opinionated, I don't shy away from my opinions but at the same time I'm extremely vulnerable sometimes, and I show my vulnerability too. I have my own struggles with right and wrong, my value systems. But through Naina, I was able to touch upon that part, that one can cross a line for what they believe in.”

Created by Gaurav Shukla, the series also stars Arshad Warsi, Barun Sobti and Riddhi Dogra. The second season of Asur will stream on JioCinema from June 1.
