The recently released multi-starrer Taanav is a web series that touches upon the sensitive topic of Kashmir and its conflicts. The show is an Indian adaptation of the popular Israeli series Fauda which revolves around the country’s defense forces, their struggles, and their impact on the citizens. Its Indian version Taanav is set against the backdrop of Kashmir with actors like Arbaaz Khan and Waluscha De Sousa playing pivotal roles in this Sudhir Mishra directorial.
Speaking about her character in the series, Waluscha De Sousa revealed that she plays the role of a Kashmiri Muslim named Zainaab. Needless to say, it was a unique role for her and the actress also discussed taking up such a different role. “Taanav is very very special to me. It is a series where I got the opportunity to play a character so far removed from who I am entirely. I portray a Kashmiri Muslim woman and speak in Kashmiri as well – it is a dialect that I had to learn from scratch. I am so grateful for this opportunity and this character that was given to me by Sudhir Sir and Applause Production. It is a role very few would imagine me playing. This is perhaps the most fulfilling character I have played till date.”
However, Waluscha De Sousa did not reveal many details about her character since the series is an adaptation.
Speaking of Taanav, the series will premiere on SonyLIV. It is produced by Applause Entertainment in association with Applause Productions. Created by Avi Issacharoff & Lior Raz and Distributed by Yes Studios, the show is helmed by Sudhir Mishra and Sachin Mamta Krishn.
