Nushrratt Bharuccha reveals she didn’t want to do Pyaar Ka Punchnama, says Rajkummar Rao and Amit Sial convinced her

Nushrratt Bharuccha seems to be on a roll as of late. The actress is currently awaiting the release of a host of projects, including Janhit Mein Jaari which is scheduled for release on June 10. Bharuccha has made a name for herself with her memorable performances in films such as Pyaar Ka Punchnama and Chhorii. The former marked a pivotal moment in her career, but the actress recently revealed that she was not very keen on being a part of the 2011 film initially.

According to a report in The Indian Express, Bharuccha recalled her mindset after she had done the film Love Sex Aur Dhokha(LSD). Calling the film ‘path breaking’, the actress revealed that after doing the anthology drama, she only wanted to take up similar kinds of films only. “I had fallen in love with acting while shooting LSD and the film did so well that I thought this is the way to go,” she said. But unfortunately for Bharuccha, she struggled to get work after the film.

The actress said that she was so ‘hell bent’ on doing films similar to LSD that she had even said no when Pyaar Ka Punchnama was offered to her. But thankfully, her LSD co-stars Rajkummar Rao and Amit Sial has given her some solid advice.

The duo had convinced the actress to take up the role, saying that getting to do a film was a big deal. Rao and Sial had talked about how a lot of people did not get such an opportunity and persuaded the actress to take the role even if she didnt want to, saying that she could have her pick of films to do later in her career. Bharuccha said that she was ‘glad’ she listened to their advice.
