Samyukta Hornad has her hands full. While she has Naanu Mathu Gunda, directed by Srinivas rolling, the actor has completed shooting for MMCH, a film directed by Musanje Mahesh, and Arishadvarga, directed by Arvind Kamath. Her next projects in pipeline include Namma UFO, directed by Ajay Sapreshkar and Amar Chitra Katha, directed by Shankar and also starring Suraj Gowda; shooting for both films will begin in March.

Apart from this, she has also been working on a Telugu film and is in discussion for another one, which said to be a psychological thriller.

Samyukhta says, “Honestly, I just cannot reject the kind of projects that are coming my way. But I don’t talk about my films till they go on floors, which I feel is the right time to talk about them.” 

The actor is looking forward to working on Namma UFO, her sci-fi film with Ajay. “I can’t wait to see myself as a badass cop - a go-getter,” says Samyuktha. “Being a sci-fi subject, a part of the film’s script has me travelling to space, which is another reason for excitement. Since childhood, I had this dream of going to the moon. My dream will sort of come true through this film,” she says.
