About the film,

Rachana

says, “I am blessed to work with such a wonderful team in my first film. I play the daughter of a customs officer, who works in a five-star hotel as a receptionist. She is a practical girl who falls in love with a man. How she fights for her love builds up her character. There is plenty of scope to showcase my acting skills, which is why I signed on the dotted line.”
Apart from being an actor, Rachana is also a national-level badminton player and author. “I found out that I love acting the most, so I decided to pursue it. I have also given stage shows in my younger days, which gave me the confidence that I can have a long and bright career here,” sums up Rachana.
