Portraying a character onscreen often requires actors to oscillate between intense emotions in the blink of an eye. For Anjali Tatrari who plays the role of Yuvika in Sony SAB’s family drama Vanshaj, the journey was equally challenging. During the recent shoot for the show, she had to go through a diverse range of emotions, all in the matter of a few minutes.
Anjali’s character Yuvika, on one hand, cries tears of joy to have finally proven her father's innocence and exposed Shobhana's (Kavita Kapoor) crimes to the world. However, in the very next moment, her world is turned upside down as she grapples with the shocking news of Shobhana taking her own life. This emotional rollercoaster was no easy feat for Anjali, as she had to navigate the extremes of joy, sorrow, and guilt, all within the same narrative. However, Anjali took the difficult task of moving from one emotion to the other head on and delivered a moving performance.
Anjali Tatrari, who plays the character of Yuvika, said, “Yuvika's journey has been a rollercoaster, full of various circumstances and emotions. As an actor it’s not easy to portray these extreme feelings all in the matter of a few minutes. It was definitely an intense process that tested my skills and pushed me to do better as a performer. The experience was exhausting, challenging and thrilling at the same time. Now, witnessing the audience's appreciation to those scenes is incredibly rewarding, and there's nothing more fulfilling for an actor.”
