After a long gap, Genelia Deshmukh is back in movies and she arrived with a banger like ‘Ved’ which turned out to be a huge blockbuster. It is the remake of ‘Majili’. She has recently arrived with another project titled ‘Trial Period’. It is a light-hearted entertainer which marks Genelia’s debut in the OTT arena.
Talking about the film’s script, Genelia said, “When I decided to start work again in Hindi, I got this script. Usually, when I get a script, I take time and read it in intervals. But with Trial Period, I finished reading the whole script in one and an hour. I found it fresh and unique. Something that interests me instantly.”
Talking about the OTT content in recent times, she said, “Riteish and I are pretty confident that this is what people have missed- like (people) sitting together and enjoying. I see a lot of films and shows (on OTT), and I can’t involve my kids with me very often. So India is about that. It is about celebrating movies together. Films have been part of our family celebrations. We either watch a movie together on Sunday or go out to the cinema. This has been a tradition in many households for years. I hope to see films that we grew up watching.”
Genelia will be seen as a single mother in ‘Trial Period’ and she says, “I think any mother role should go a to mother. Because the little thing that you do for your kids, it’s not possible to explain. It’s not possible to explain, what parents do for their children, their relationship, their routine, or daily chores. Only parents will understand.” ‘Trial Period’ is streaming on Jio Cinema from 21st July.
