Courtesy Ma, I have experienced and lived the Bengali way of life and culture, and the Malayalee culture and way of life with Papa. He has lived here in Calcutta for many years now. He talks very sweetly in Bengali and addresses everyone as ‘tumi’. Ma has taught me to say ‘apni’ to the elders. My Dida and Mama have also familiarised me with the Bengali culture and I have Bengali friends here. But when I go home in Kerala, I am told that I am a Bengali, but when I come back here, my Mama jokes, saying, ‘Tui toh ekhono Keralite e roye geli.’ And then I am like, yes, I am Malayalee, or yes, I am Bengali. Both the cultures are so rich in their ways and alike in some ways. We know how to hold on to our culture with pride and I have both the cultures in my blood.” ^[2]The Telegraph

The audition person told me to come down to Calcutta from Barrackpore, telling me that the character suits me. The audition took hours with the look test; I completed it and left for home. When I was in the car, I got a call saying — ‘Annie, you are selected!’ And believe me, I cried; I didn’t tell my parents right away because I wanted to see their reactions face-to-face. I called up my best friend while continuously crying the entire time… back at home, Papa and Ma were both crying happy tears too. I remember Papa saying, ‘Didn’t I tell you the time will come when you will do what you love, and here it is!’ They were both so happy.”

  Initially, it was difficult for me to read the scripts in Bengali since I don’t understand Bengali that well. My second language was Hindi, and I have studied in an English medium school. So, I couldn’t study Bengali formally but learned it from Ma, so my knowledge of Bengali is practical rather than theoretical. Ma has always urged me to talk more in Bengali to understand the conversational language, and even more so now. And the entire team is aware that I still have some difficulty in speaking Bengali, but they always encourage and motivate me to overcome that. I was told to read Bengali books, read poems, newspapers and I took the advice.”
