Shooting in extreme weather conditions was a challenge for this actor, who was left with chattering teeth and shivering hands at the end of every shot. “I have been brought up in a moderate climate. For me the chill was very unfamiliar so I faced a little trouble there. For other actors it was little more familiar,” says she. The film has 12-year-old Ladakhi actor Skalzang Aungchuk playing the role of her brother Chomo. “ The film is a beautiful portrayal of brother-sister relationship. It tells you how you can find peace of mind even amidst crowd and how, even if you got to Himalaya looking for inner peace, you will not get it unless you look within yourself,” she elaborates.
The actor who ended up burning DVDs of world cinema to learn the nuances of acting also attended three-week long workshop before she finally started with the shoot. The 104-minute long film had the actor churning out the best of her acting skills. “ The film has very less dialogues so I guess I had no other option left than to bring out the best,” she smiles.
Apart from touring with the film, Gauri also is busy shooting for Chadrabhushan’s second venture, which is an Indo-Spanish film that revolves around three generation of women. Post Frozen, the actor, who is flooded with offers is planning to take a plung in the mainstream. “ I have done off beats now I want to taste the other part of our film industry. People have approached me and if a good script comes, I will love to do typical Bollywood stuff,” she signs off.
