Mumbai, Nov 10 (Ians) Actress Mrunal Thakur refuses to get pigeonholed. She says no one should be able to define her abilities or have a set idea of her capabilities.
The actress, who made her mark with roles in "Super 30" and "Batla House" last year, has "Jersey" opposite Shahid Kapoor and "Toofan" co-starring Farhan Akhtar coming up in Bollywood. Films like "Aankh Micholi" with Abhimanyu Dassani, "Pippa" co-starring Ishaan Khatter and the "Thadam" remake are also coming up.
"With the changing landscape of content today, what really helps actors is their range. A filmmaker shouldn't be able to associate you with any particular type. Fluidity and versatility are crucial for any artiste working in this day and age. With the set ideas of heroes and heroines and villains gone, we are all competing for an audience's attention equally. And we are catering to an evolved audience that's simultaneously consuming a lot of international content.
