Sushmita Sen has been making waves with her achingly tender performance as transgender activist Shreegauri Sawant in the web series, 'Taali.' In a new interview with Humans of Bombay, she reflected upon her role in Shah Rukh Khan's film, 'Main Hoon Na.' The 1994 Miss Universe winner spoke about the unique trajectory and 'small but powerful role' of her character, Chandni Chopra - which was re-affirmed by late film maestro, Yash Chopra as well.

Sushmita said that Main Hoon Na became career-defining because everybody ‘keeps going back' to the film. Recalling a pivotal moment during the film's final edit, Sushmita said that director Farah Khan had apologized about her role in the film being fleeting.
