The singing sensation, Sunidhi Chauhan is making her acting debut in Humaramovie’s next short, Playing Priya. Playing Priya, a fantasy thriller based in an urban landscape, will release on the digital platform soon.

The short is directed by Arif Ali, who made his directorial debut with the feature, Lekar Hum Deewana Dil.

How did the short happen? “Sunidhi has a thing for thrillers, dark films and twisted characters. So when I narrated this idea to her, she loved it and agreed to act in it” says Arif Ali.

Talking about Sunidhi’s acting skills, Arif says, “She was a complete natural. She has given 20 years to singing. If she concentrates a bit on acting too and gives it a few years, she can be a full fledged actor, she has a bright career as an actor.”

Sharing her excitement about the acting stint, Sunidhi says, “I always wanted to act but never thought that I would enjoy it so much. The whole experience was just Awesome!”
