Patralekhaa on challenges while portraying Savitribai Phule: There’s no footage of her to understand her demeanour
Hindustan TimesActor Patralekhaa is soon has already begun filing for her next, where she portrays the role of legendary Savitribai Phule. We did not know what her demeanour was like,” says Patralekhaa adding, “It’s just her poetry and what she has left behind that we had for understanding. And I believe that’s better than any material.” The Ananth Narayan Mahadevan’s directorial based on the iconic couple Jyotiba Phule and his wife Savitribai Phule, also stars actor Pratik Gandhi in the lead role. While in the absence of any visual material to refer to, it’s indeed difficult to bring Savitribai’s character live on screen, Patralekhaa asserts she is going to play her “like I think she would have been, like I would perceive her”. Patralekhaa says, today if she’s able to work with a free will, it’s because someone as brave as Savitribai fought for the rights of women.
