 "'I Had to Unlearn and Tap Into a Raw Version of Myself' – Priya Bapat on Becoming Inspector Kalpana in 'Andhera'")
After winning hearts with her performances in acclaimed films and hit web series like City of Dreams, Raat Jawaan Hai, and Costao, Priya Bapat is now adding another impactful performance to her illustrious repertoire with Andhera, her latest outing on Prime Video.
Known for portraying emotionally rich characters with depth and authenticity, Priya brings the same conviction to Andhera, a gritty crime drama that blurs the line between duty and darkness. About playing a cop Priya shared, “Playing a cop in Andhera wasn’t just about wearing the uniform, it was about understanding the weight it carries. I had to unlearn a lot and tap into a more instinctive, raw version of myself. It challenged me in the best way possible.”
About the things that keep her creatively grounded, Priya shared, “I love going to Bhandardara (a place near Nashik) during the firefly season. Just watching them in the stillness of the night reminds me that even in complete darkness, there’s beauty and light. It helps me reset before I step into intense roles.”
With every project, Priya Bapat has built a reputation for choosing strong, layered roles. Andhera is not just another addition to her filmography, but a bold step into a new space.
