New Delhi, July 24 (Ians) The showrunner of crime-investigative drama ‘Kohrra’, Sudip Sharma has shared his vision on the casting of English actress Rachel Shelley, saying they needed an actor with an experience in Indian shooting conditions, and she delivered a great job.
Rachel was seen as Elizabeth Russell in the Oscar-nominated Bollywood epic 2001 release ‘Lagaan’, starring Aamir Khan in the lead. In ‘Kohrra’ she is seen as Clara Murphy, a character based in the UK.
Sudip called Rachel a fantastic actor, saying she delivered a great job.
