– When I first read the script it was very different from what I had read previously. It is an atypical female lead. She’s not perfect, do weird things and have no limits. I get attracted to such roles that are not clichés, she says.
Player mother
– I worked closely with director Iram Haq to come up with a character who is Norwegian-Pakistani, but that all women can recognize themselves in. In the end we ended up with a film that’s more about being a woman with a difficult emotional life than just being multicultural, she continues.
