New Delhi, Jan 20: After starting her career as the feisty wife of a gangster in Anurag Kashyap's ‘Gangs of Wasseypur', actress Huma Qureshi is looking forward to a busy year ahead with the release of two films - ‘Ek Thi Dayan' and ‘D-Day'.
The 26-year-old Delhi girl says she is happy to be in the film industry at the right time.
“Maybe the stars are conspiring for me or maybe I am meeting the right people. I landed in Mumbai at the right time and with my parents' blessing and hard work, I have managed to do well. I think it is a combination of everything. I am not complaining,” Huma told PTI.
She is sharing screen space with Emraan Hashmi, Kalki Koechlin and Konkona Sen Sharma in the upcoming supernatural thriller ‘Ek Thi Dayan'. Jointly produced by Ekta Kapoor and Vishal Bhardwaj, the film's trailer has already been received well. The film, based on the legend of a witch, will hit theatres on April 18.
Huma, who was last seen in ‘Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurrana', is also working with Arjun Rampal and Irrfan Khan in Nikhil Advani's action movie ‘D-Day'.
“I am very busy as an actor. Actually I signed ‘Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurrana', ‘Ek Thi Dayan' and ‘D-Day' before the release of ‘Gangs of Wasseypur'. This is why they are coming in such quick succession.
I am happy to explore myself as an actor with these two different films,” she says. PTI
