Actress Pallavi Sharda, who plays a sex worker in the upcoming film "Begum Jaan", says she is enjoying experimenting with different characters in films.
Pallavi, born in Perth, Australia, was seen hosting Indian Premier League (IPL) 2016.
"From the IPL, where I was my Aussie crazy self to playing a rural sex worker from Punjab, it's been an incredible year as a performer. So I am enjoying experimenting with different characters and surrending to very different scripts," Pallavi said in a statement.
Directed by Srijit Mukherji, "Begum Jaan" also stars Vidya Balan.
Pallavi was last seen on screen in the 2015 film "Hawaizaada", and finds it "rewarding" to work with such a team.
"It was so rewarding to work with a performer as accomplished as Vidya Balan, as well as ensemble of actors and director Srijit Mukherji that are so committed to their craft," she said.
