Aahana Kumra plays a pilot in the upcoming film, Madhur Bhandarkar’s India Lockdown. It is a job profile that demands travel, but her character is forced to stay at home owing to Covid-induced lockdown.

“I’m playing a pilot who’s stuck in her house in Mumbai during the lockdown, and doesn’t get to travel. During this phase, she truly understands the meaning of relationships, through the loneliness that she experiences. It’s an interesting space for me to be in,” Kumra says.

She is excited to work with Bhandarkar, who is known for creating strong female roles in films such as Chandni Bar, Page 3, Satta, Fashion, Corporate and Heroine.

“I’ve always admired Mr. Madhur Bhandarkar and his work. I will be shooting in Mumbai soon in one house, so let’s hope it turns out to be fabulous.”
