“I think I have been lucky that even in my commercial films I’ve got the chance to play performance-heavy parts. After all, Bindiya from ‘Raanjhanaa’ is remembered as a great role because it provided the opportunity for a certain kind of performance that was memorable,” Swara said.

Swara will next be seen on screen in the upcoming film “Anaarkali Aaraahwaali”.
