Despite having a successful career in films, she says she has no problem auditioning to prove her capability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the phone call for the audition of the Netflix TV Series came as a surprise for her, recalling the incident, Kalki told IANS: &#8220;I watched the show and after a month I got an audition call for the show. Of course, I never thought that I will become part of the show when I watched the first season. I was surprised and excited when I got called.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Auditioning for a role is quite refreshing because the director should know if I am able to pull off the character I am offered. They might have seen my work so far but if I am offered something different from what I have done in the past, they should audition me. I do not mind auditioning at all.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I may not have auditioned many times for Bollywood projects but I keep auditioning for international projects and that process keeps it real for me, keep me grounded,&#8221; added the \u2018Gully Boy\u2019 actress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In \u2018Sacred Games 2\u2019, she plays a girl named Batya, who hails from a conflicting background. Her father is a Jewish French and mother is a Palestinian, who abandoned her as a teenager. The character transforms from being a drug addict and a rebellious angry girl to a follower of the godman &#8216;Guruji&#8217;, played by Pankaj Tripathi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I know, there might be a little element here and there from &#8216;Dev D&#8217; or &#8216;Shaitaan&#8217;, but you know just because you play a gangster in one film, does not mean that all of them are the same. So my character in &#8216;Sacred Games 2&#8217; is different from the rest of the references I mentioned,&#8221; she smiled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What was new about Batya that drew her to the character? &#8220;My audition scene was the intriguing point for me, to get drawn towards the character Batya.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National Award-winning actress Kalki Koechlin, who plays a pivotal role in the upcoming show &#8216;Sacred Games 2&#8217;, has bagged the project after an audition.
