"'Anaarkali..." is by far the most challenging role that I have played and I have really enjoyed living the character while shooting the film. It is a brave film, we have picked a difficult character to tell the story. I think its a hugely relevant film," Swara said in a statement here.
The "Tanu Weds Manu Returns" actress plays a singer crooning double meaning songs in the film directed by debutante journalist-turned-filmmaker Avinash Das.
"I am sure Swara's look as 'Anaarkali' will be appreciated by the audience. It's one of her most challenging roles so far and she has played it with great aplomb," film's producer Sandiip Kapur said.
