Actors Smita Tambe, Girija Oak and Esha Dey Open Up About Their Roles in 'Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata'
In an exclusive interview, actors Smita Tambe, Girija Oak, and Esha Dey shared insights into their characters as nurses in the upcoming film 'Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata'. They highlighted the layered portrayal of healthcare workers and reflected on their experience working alongside lead actor Kangana Ranaut.
Distinct Personalities in the Nursing Profession
Smita Tambe described her character as straightforward and stubborn, focused on her job. 'Our characters are nurses of different natures. They have very different and interesting personalities. I am straight and stubborn. I am focused on my job,' she said.
Girija Oak added that the film portrays ordinary people who play a crucial role in extraordinary circumstances. 'We are representing those people who are a part of our daily lives; however, they have contributed toward a major cause. I am a little mischievous. It is my nature to lighten up every situation. Her name is Sheetal. We all face incidents with our personalities,' she explained.
Esha Dey spoke about her character's personal struggles, reflecting the challenges faced by working women. 'The film shows different challenges that the nurses go through. One of them is the personal life challenge that my character faces. She lives alone in Mumbai. After the incident, everyone goes to their families but Babita goes to an empty house. All of them are nurses,' she said.
Inspired by Kangana Ranaut's Dedication
Praising Kangana Ranaut, Smita Tambe recalled her previous collaboration with the actor in 'Panga' and hailed her professionalism and versatility. 'I worked with her on 'Panga'. I have seen two different forms of her. She has always been so professional. I have always been a fan of hers. She is that kind of actress. Who is a heroine? She can do many roles. But the choices she makes in films. The courage, the straightforwardness. I would like to take that all my life,' she said.
Girija Oak and Esha Dey also praised Kangana's on-set presence, noting that she brought authenticity and emotional depth to her role. 'She brings the vulnerability in the character. She is a very original person. In today's world. It's difficult to be original because everyone follows a trend,' they said.
Film Inspired by True Events
The trailer of 'Bharat Bhhagya Viddhaata' was unveiled earlier this week, offering a powerful and emotionally charged glimpse into a story inspired by true events. The film traces the journey of ordinary individuals who displayed extraordinary courage to save more than 400 lives in the face of unimaginable terror. Headlined by Kangana Ranaut, the film shifts the spotlight from celebrated heroes to nurses and ward boys who emerged as silent saviours during one of India's darkest chapters. Inspired by real-life incidents, the film highlights the indispensable role played by healthcare workers and support staff, underscoring how the system would struggle to function without their selfless service and dedication.
The film is presented by Dr Jayantilal Gada's PEN Studios and produced by PEN Studios, Manikarnika Films and Paramhans Creations in association with Eunoia Films LLP and Floating Rocks Entertainment Pvt Ltd.
