Urvashi Rautela Opens Up About Her Character In Inspector Avinash web series

Rautela had a lot to say about her role in the series. She says that she will be portraying Poonam Mishra, the wife of a real-life super-cop Avinash Mishra. For her, Poonam Mishra is the 'epitome of strength and courage who is a 'pillar of support' for her husband. She added that she is doing her best to get under the skin of her character and is trying to get her personality and mannerisms right. "I’m wearing the same kind of bangles and sarees of her liking, basically trying to soak up the character to the best of my ability!" she said. Besides that, Urvashi Rautela also added that doing biopics is a real challenge for actors as it is a huge responsibility to bring real people to life on the silver screen. She recently confirmed that she will be starring in the film on social media. 

The shooting had reportedly commenced as soon as the lockdown restrictions were lifted. 

Like Rautela, actor Randeep Hooda too has expressed his excitement over playing the lead role of Avinash Mishra. He has promised that the film will be a 'thorough entertainer.'
