Directed and produced by Ujjwal V. Thengdi, Hindi Feature film In The Name Of.. Tai has a female oriented plot, wherein an educated village woman (lawyer), respectfully known as “Tai” chooses a valiant but a dangerous path. She unfortunately suffers in her personal life, yet selflessly battles for a common cause of protecting acres of land owned by the village farmers from the clutches of the corridor of power & builders. Inspired from the real life story of slain activist lawyer Navleen Kumar, it is a very hard hitting film. Now the spirited character of Tai has been played by veteran and talented actress Nishigandha Wad. We entered into a small conversation with her on the film. Excerpts... How did you get this role? Director of the film Ujjwal V. Thengdi had called me and given me a brief about the story, my character. Later I met him in his office for complete narration. And I liked the story very much. So I decided to play this role. I would like to state that this film is Ujjwal V. Thengdi’s dream project and I had to work hard. I feel very lucky that he chose me for this role. His earlier critically acclaimed Marathi film ‘Vazir’, had gone to create new bench mark & was the turning point of Marathi Industry. This film is inspired from a real life character. What is your role in the film? I am playing the role of Tai, the protagonist, in the movie and it was a pleasure to be a part of the project. The movie will keep the audience inquisitive about what will happen when a straight forward person will enter into the world of politics and how she will move forward besides getting threatened by people. We hope that the audience will appreciate it. The movie is releasing on 12 October. How did you manage time given your commitment to Colors’ show Sasural Simar Ka? Not only me but other artists in the film are also from the TV industry. We all adjusted our schedule and did our parts, because of the subject and the issue raised through the film. There is one artist by the name of Palvie who used to shuttle down between Britain and India. If she could manage to cross countries, then why not us. Did you do any particular study or research for this role? Frankly speaking, I never met Navleen in my personnel life. So whatever I read, watched, saw gave me some idea about her personality. Then the story line of the film, her character sketch done in it, all this gave me a chance to study her exact character. She was a lady who never looked back in her life. She even didn't care about herself or had any desire. She worked selflessly for her goal. The film has a bold subject and many actors earlier declined to take up the challenge. Any comments? This role is experimental for me because this is real life and comes from current history. I have never done anything like this.Yes the film is bold but then struggle is always bold. Else one cannot carry it forward, especially if it is for some other people’s issues. Hope people like the film and my portrayal of the person.
