Sanya Malhotra credits Rajkummar Rao for her performance in HIT: The First Case

Actress Sanya Malhotra, who appeared in the Netflix films Pagglait (2021) and Meenakshi Sundereshwar (2021) last year, is set to be seen next in HIT: The First Case (2022) which is a remake of the Telugu film of the same name.

This is the first time Malhotra will be seen playing the role of a forensic official. But somehow, a challenging role like this got smooth for her. There’s a reason for it. “To be honest, when you're working with actors like Rajkummar Rao, it becomes more collaborative. You just have to follow their lead and react to what they're doing beautifully,” she said.

She further added, “I never felt anything was too challenging or difficult for me and also the credit has to go to Rajkummar Rao because he is not only a good actor but a brilliant co-actor too. So, it never felt like I'm in a scene reciting my dialogues or anything and it never felt that way because it all felt so natural and all felt conversational to me as an actor.”

Recently, her chemistry with co-star Rao was also appreciated in the song ‘Kitni Haseen Hogi’ which was released recently.

The film is directed by Dr Sailesh Kolanu who directed the original Telugu film HIT: The First Case (2020) is due to be released on 15 July.
