Mandana Karimi Reveals THIS Filmmaker Helped Her When She Had No Work For 2 Years

Mandana Karimi, who is known for her bold and glamorous avatars in movies, has been missing from the scene for quite some time now. But if you missed her all this while, here is a great piece of news for you! The gorgeous actress will soon be seen in the upcoming webseries The Casino, which marks her debut in the digital world.

Mandana Karimi got offered The Casino at a very crucial time in her life. She had not been getting any work for almost two hours before she signed the webseries on the dotted line. Talking to a publication, the actress said that she had tears in her eyes when she was offered The Casino. She could not believe it! After two years’ break and not having any release, it was really hard for her to get work.

Mandana Karimi went on to reveal that it was her friend and renowned filmmaker Anurag Kashyap who motivated her in her low time. She said that she had spoken to Kashyap a year and a half ago about why she was not getting work and what she should do. He gave her the best advice and that was to work on her craft, take workshops, stop trying too hard, trust her journey, be honest and work hard not for money but for the love of art.

Karimi also added that the filmmaker shared a few numbers of acting workshops with her. In one of the acting workshops, she met acting coach Saurabh Sachdeva and started training with him for four months. His classes changed her as a person and as an actor.

By January, the actress started giving auditions for some projects for a streaming media platform. She said that people started noticing the change in her too. Finally, she got a meeting for The Casino and signed it just a few days before leaving for Nepal.
