Huma Qureshi on shooting political rallies and key sequences of Maharani 4 in Bhopal’s soaring temperature
Huma Qureshi in the series
Maharani has become one of Huma Qureshi’s defining projects to date. Now, it’s becoming one of her most physically challenging roles. The actor, who kicked off the fourth season’s shoot in February, is currently filming in Bhopal, where the temperature has been hovering around 40 degrees.
According to a source from the unit, the drama’s Bhopal schedule is crucial, with Qureshi filming political gatherings and rallies. “Creator Subhash Kapoor shot the past three seasons in real locations. This time too, he wants to capture the rawness and realism that Bhopal offers. There are scenes where Huma’s character is addressing huge gatherings under the sun. It’s difficult to work in the scorching heat,” said the insider.
When Qureshi spoke to mid-day briefly, she was excited about reprising her role of the homemaker-turned-politician, the heat notwithstanding. “Playing Rani Bharti again is like slipping into old skin, but this season, she’s fiercer. It’s hot, but when you’re chasing a powerful story, everything else becomes background noise,” she stated.
