MUMBAI: Nushrratt Bharuccha has carved a unique space for herself in an industry where female-led franchises remain rare. With the success of Chhorii and its sequel, the actor is now gearing up for the next chapter in the chilling horror universe — a feat she acknowledges has not been easy, but deeply rewarding.
Speaking about her journey, Nushrratt reflects on the emotional and professional transformation the franchise has brought her. "“Chhorii 1 and 2 meant so much to me. We’re starting another one now, and honestly, it’s really tough for a girl to build her own franchise. I didn’t do it alone — it was my producer, my director, and every co-actor who stood by me. I say this as a girl who once thought she would only be a rom-com actress. This is from Chhorii to all of you.”
For Nushrratt, Chhorii also marks a personal evolution. Known initially for her roles in light-hearted romances, she admits that she once believed she would remain a “rom-com actress.” But the franchise pushed her into a new creative zone, one that allowed her to explore depth, intensity, and social commentary through horror.
As she steps into the next installment, Nushrratt dedicates the success of Chhorii to every girl redefining her path, proving that reinvention, courage, and conviction can build legacies, even in the most unexpected genres.
