Shahana Goswami Shahana Goswamiwas recently in Delhi to attend the screening of her upcoming Australian-Indian TV series Four Years Later at the Australian High Commission.

The series is about immigration and how it takes a toll on people in different ways.

The show is also about immigration and how it takes a toll on people in different ways. The way Yash's character experiences immigration is very different from how Sri's character experiences it because of her own background and challenges. This is something a lot of people in our generation relate to

I can only be the actor I am based on how I observe and experience the world around me'

I think it has a lot to do with how I live my life. I can only be the actor I am based on how I observe and experience the world around me. Empathy is something I've been brought up with, something I've nurtured and it's continued to grow in me.

Also people need to remember that filmmaking isn't what you see on-screen. It's a disconnected process. You jump between scenes with no emotional continuity. You have to stay present, switch emotions quickly and perform. It's a constant dance between practicality and vulnerability - allowing something real to flow through you even in fragmented circumstances.

There's often this divide between depictions of extreme poverty or rural life that outsiders associate with India and the larger-than-life Bollywood extravaganza. But the middle ground - the reality lived by many Indians today - remains underrepresented.

She added: I experience this whenever I travel. People don't know how to place me - someone who speaks fluent English."
