The actress was here for a brief vacation in Abu Dhabi, but decided to stay put when the travel restrictions came into place. “I am missing my family back home in India, but I am staying with my best friend Anisha and her loving family in Abu Dhabi.

    Roy made her debut in Akshay Kumar’s biopic Gold in 2018 and has starred in films including John Abraham’s Romeo Akbar Walter and Rajkummar Rao’s ‘Made In China’. She remembers a time when she auditioned for ‘Gold’ while was filming her TV series Naagin. “I borrowed my mother’s sari and wore that for the auditions during my lunch break. I had to tone down my make-up, because my character in Naagin wore heavy make-up,” said Roy in our exclusive chat. Image Credit: Supplied
