Farnaz Shetty: The filmmaking process remains the same whether it’s the South or Bollywood

Actress Farnaz Shetty, who has made a strong mark in South Indian cinema with films like Gaja and Rambo, is now stepping into a new and exciting phase of her career. The actress is all set to make her Bollywood debut with the feature film Adrishya. Actor Freddy Daruwala will be part of the film.

Speaking about the project, Farnaz shares, “It is a fantastic project. I was waiting for the right film to mark my Bollywood debut, and this offer came at the perfect time. I can’t reveal much about my character yet, but it truly feels like a dream come true — a dream I’ve worked very hard for.”




Reflecting on her journey across industries, she adds, “The filmmaking process remains the same whether it’s the South or Bollywood. As an actor, the biggest challenge is language. Working in the South was highly demanding in that sense, but I was fortunate to collaborate with some of the finest people. Being surrounded by veterans like cinematographer Shyam K. Naidu and Jagdish Chiketi shaped me immensely as an actor."

Adding to the excitement, Farnaz confirms she has already signed her second Bollywood project. “I’ll keep it under wraps for now but it’s huge.”Get the latest entertainment updates from the Times of India, along with the latest Hindi movies, upcoming Hindi movies in 2026 , and Telugu movies.”
