Ankita Singh, widely recognized for her role in RCR’s music video “Koi Sehri Babu 2.0,” is now setting her sights on a career in Bhojpuri cinema. With ambitious plans for the film industry, she hopes to begin her journey with projects that reflect her cultural roots.
Selective About Roles
At a recent event, Ankita revealed that she has turned down several offers for Bhojpuri songs and films, not out of hesitation but because she’s patiently waiting for a role that truly fits her vision. She wants more than just a glamorous part; she’s looking for a project that genuinely reflects the heart and soul of Bhojpuri culture.
Desire for Meaningful Work
During our conversation, she calmly expressed her desire for her work to have significance, saying, “I want it to mean something.” Having been raised surrounded by the language and culture, she emphasized that if she enters Bhojpuri cinema, her intention is to honor it sincerely, not merely appear on screen without purpose.
Inspiration from Ravi Kishan
Singh reveals she was deeply touched by Ravi Kishan’s performance in 'Laapataa Ladies'. It wasn’t his celebrity status that caught her attention, but the depth and authenticity he brought to his role. This is the level of storytelling she dreams of contributing to. While she looks forward to working with him one day, she insists it must be on a project with a script that genuinely speaks to her.
Passion and Patience for the Perfect Opportunity
Though she hasn’t stepped into the Bhojpuri film industry yet, Ankita is clearly passionate about it. She sees great potential for powerful narratives in this space and is prepared to take the dip when the perfect moment arrives.
