The first look of actor Parul Gulati from Divyenndu and Barun Sobti starrer Donali was unveiled recently.
Donali is directed by E. Niwas and is set in the rugged world of Chambal’s dacoits. One of the pictures also shows her holding a katta (country-made pistol).
Sharing her thoughts on the role, Parul said, "Playing a dacoit in Donali has been one of the most thrilling experiences of my career. This character is raw, gritty, and unapologetic—very different from anything I’ve done before. The look itself speaks volumes; it’s stripped down, real, and full of intensity.
“It wasn’t just about looking the part but truly becoming it. The entire process—from training with weapons to adapting to the dialect and body language—has been both challenging and exhilarating,” she added.
Donali is set in 1960s Chambal. The film will also feature Chunky Pandey.
