“She graciously shared her therapy notes, which I used to read almost every day and used to feel anger and sadness, as I was very close to her. It pains me to know that some women are going through this, has accepted it and has given up on their dreams and their want,” the actress shared, adding that every day on the sets of ‘Mrs’ was “brilliant”. She also spoke about how she wants to do films that leave an impact and inspire, especially women.

The Sanya-starrer Mrs is an official adaptation of the Malayalam film The Great Indian Kitchen. The film has been receiving an incredible response at international film festivals. Earlier this year, Sanya won the Best Actress award at the New York Indian Film Festival, which has amped up excitement among her fans to witness the film in theatres.
