Nargis Fakhri celebrated 10 years of her film Main Tera Hero, which marked the actress’ third theatrical release after Madras Cafe (2013) and Rockstar (2011). While audience saw Fakhri in intense roles in Madras Cafe and Rockstar, she emerged as a surprise package in this comic caper.
The film also became Fakhri’s third consecutive box office hit with an impressive collection of Rs 78 crore.
Speaking about the film’s achievement, the actress said, “Time flies by so fast! It feels like it was just yesterday when we shot the film. I had a great time working with director David Dhawan, and my co-stars Varun Dhawan and Ileana D’Cruz. It is rare that a film like Main Tera Hero comes by and keeps you laughing throughout. We have spent some great moments shooting the film, and I will always cherish it. I am glad to have secured the opportunity to play a fun and lighthearted role as Ayesha Singhal after playing grim and intense roles in Madras Cafe and Rockstar. Ayesha Singhal allowed me to unload the heaviness and intensity from my previous characters, and helped me to connect more with the audience.” Fakhri was last seen in the streaming series, Tatlubaaz.
