Mumbai: Actress Kirti Kulhari, who is all geared up for the upcoming detective drama ‘Shekhar Home’ has shared thoughts on her evolving career, and said she gets offers that don’t always interest her.
Kirti, who has been in the industry for the past 14 years, shared: “Although I’ve been working on feature films which aren’t out yet and I am also exploring production, I think the industry needs to evolve. I get offers that don’t always interest me.”
“The sheer volume of work can sometimes impact quality, and the distinction between OTT and film stars should be eliminated. Everyone should be equally recognized. My role in this series is a refreshing change, combining detective elements with humor, and it’s something new compared to my previous work,” she added.
