Nushrratt Bharuccha About not getting roles like Sonakshi Sinha, Shraddha Kapoor

Bollywood: Recently, Nushrratt Bharuccha talked about the challenges faced by outsiders in networking and accessing opportunities in the Bollywood Industry.

 In a recent interview with Shubhankar Mishra, Nushrat spoke about how, despite her successful films, she still struggles to get roles. But if we compare Sonakshi Sinha, Shraddha Kapoor both careers with Nushrat's, they are a little ahead and their career graph are high.  When asked about this, she said, “They have an advantage. They know the industry, they know the people. And if they don’t, their parents do. So what happens is, they reach places I cannot. They can knock on doors I may not even know the address of. If I want to meet a director, who’s going to give me his number? Where should I even ask for the director’s address? This is a very practical problem — but it’s a real one.”

She further spoke about how, after Pyaar Ka Punchnama, she had wanted to contact a director but couldn’t get his number or address.

“At that time, I messaged Kabir Khan for work, and he replied and agreed to meet — that made my month. It’s so difficult to get a director’s number or set up a meeting. It’s a very tough road for people who are not from the industry. I don’t like calling them ‘nepo kids’ because they have their own struggles, but yes, they get inroads that we don’t. That may have been the harder route for me. I value the people who want to work with me. I hold them close like family. I would have liked a lot more opportunities — more ‘yes’ than ‘no’s. But I’m still very happy with the films I’ve got,” Nushrratt recalled.

Nushrratt is currently busy promoting her film Chhorii 2. The horror film, directed by Vishal Furia, is the sequel to the 2021 film Chhorii.
