Mumbai: Swara Bhaskar, who has made her presence felt in the industry with “Tanu Weds Manu” and “Raanjhanaa”, is all set to push the boundaries again with “Anarkali Aarawali”. Swara plays a singer crooning double meaning songs in the journalist-turned-filmmaker Avinash Das’s movie.
“Anarkali Aarawali is a challenging role because I play a singer who sings double meaning lewd songs and is very unapologetic about her sexuality. She considers herself an artist and her work an art.
