Illegal star Kubbra Sait: I haven't turned down any role post Sacred Games

Kubbra Sait, who was last seen in Voot Select's Illegal, said that she is enjoying the different kinds of roles coming her way.

MUMBAI: Kubbra Sait is aware of the expectations people have from her after Sacred Games but the actress said that she doesn't feel any pressure as her aim is to keep challenging herself. Kubbra started her journey with films such as Ready and Sultan but global recognition came after she played Kuckoo in the Netflix series. 

The actress, who currently features in Voot Select's drama Illegal, is happy that today there's an audience for the work she does. 

'It's a wonderful part that I've played, but if Sacred Games hadn't happened and if Illegal was perhaps my first show, people wouldn't have had the eyeballs for this part as much as much as they do today because of Sacred Games,' Kubbra said.

'They want to know what I'm doing next and that's exciting for me. I've set a very high precedent for myself and I'm happy to challenge myself to play something new,' she added. 

The 36-year-old actress said she doesn't take any 'pressure' to outdo her role in Sacred Games and is instead happy that makers are showing confidence in her craft. 

'Life before Sacred Games was very different and life after the show is equally different. I'm enjoying this new life. There's nothing to complain about. There's a lot more confidence in the makers who think I can pull a role off. I feed off their energy and then when we collaborate, the project is entirely new,' she said. 

Kubbra plays a convicted mass murderer in Illegal, which also features Neha Sharma and Piyush Mishra. The actress said it was the relevant politics around her character and the broken system caught her attention. 

'She's a real person who hasn't been executed by the law, justice hasn't been served to her. I wanted to explore her because now we are not discussing it purely based on justice but also human rights. That's what stayed with me,' she said. 

The actress said she is enjoying the wide-ranging roles coming her way and doesn't want to hold back in terms of playing different characters. 

'I haven't turned down any roles after Sacred Games. I've been more excited because for me acting is a playground and I want to make sure I score points in as many games as I can,' she said further. 

'I play a convicted mass murderer on Illegal, a sorted best friend in Jawaani Jaaneman, a character from the 60s in State vs Nanavati, have a wonderful role in Dolly Kitty Aur Woh Chamakte Sitare. I think it's a wonderful range and journey I've had, with no regrets,' she added.
