“I have been approached by Marathi filmmakers a couple of times, but I am waiting for the right opportunity to come my way. I have always been open to exploring films in different languages and Marathi is one of them. If the right script comes my way soon, I will do a Marathi film,” says Chauhan.

She adds, “I have watched a few Marathi films. Sairat (2016), in particular, is one of my favourite movies; it really made me want to work in Marathi cinema.”

Talking about the city, Pune’s “beautiful weather and clear blue skies” have reserved a special spot in the actor’s heart. “Pune is a great place to visit if you are looking for a short holiday close to Mumbai. It’s got a bit of city life and a bit of the chilled, relaxed life. The drive from Mumbai to Pune is beautiful and scenic. I have fond memories of the couple of times when I visited the city along with my friends. We would stop at roadside stalls to eat maggi. It was beautiful,” Chauhan ends.
