Mani describes her character Pallavi as “a party girl who can get to class on time.” She essentially stars in her own rom-com early in the film while desperately seeking her mother’s approval. “I feel like she is, in an alternate reality, a version of myself, for sure,” she says. “I definitely pulled from my own family, of course — the women in my Indian community.
Elsewhere in the video, Mani touches on the mother-daughter relationship in the film between her character and Usha . “The way the mother’s story of abuse played out in the script was really shocking and visceral,” she notes. “I appreciated how much time and attention was given to it while placing it in the horror genre. Very clever.”
During Mani’s first day on set, she shot the final scene in the film with Choudhury. “We were dealing with what the whole movie’s about,” she says. “This very powerful transfer of a mother’s message to her daughter. There’s such an overlap of generational divide in that moment that we shot first. And I think that bonded us quite a lot.”
