Ila Arun reveals why she said yes to Nawazuddin Siddiqui starrer Haddi

Ila Arun was questioned about her decision to play a transgender character in Haddi in an interview with Hindustan Times.

She said, "I'm the problem. My age actresses do 2-2 films in a year. I did Ghoomketu, Aafat-e-Ishq and then Chhalaang. I am shooting for three films right now. I played a transgender because actors are always looking for a challenging role. Otherwise, the face remains the same. What makes it different is the character that they play."

Ila Arun said that she has previously portrayed an 86-year-old in a children's movie. Arun claimed that she followed some transgender people, such as Lakshmi, in order to prepare for the part.

"Gracefully, she wears her saree. You need to get the body language right otherwise it is normal. It's a challenging thing to do with them on actual location but was a good opportunity", she said.

Vivek Oberoi¡¯s Stay Plea

In response to lawsuits filed by two production firms, Tiger Trail and Oberoi Mega Entertainment LLP (owned by Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi) against Haadi's creators, the Bombay High Court recently declined to stay the film's release.

Apart from the main cast, Saurabh Sachdeva, Shridhar Dubey, Rajesh Kumar, Vipin Sharma, and Saharsh Shukla are in supporting roles.
