In order to get into the skin of the character, actress Harshika Poonacha recently visited a foreign country to study the behaviours and mannerisms of prostitutes. The actress is said to be playing the role of a prostitute in the upcoming movie Gulaabi Street, directed by Pradeep Kumar.

Harshika, who did not wish to reveal the name of the country which she recently visited says, “When I heard about my character from the director, I thought the best way I can provide justice to the character is by studying the character. I did so by visiting some of the places where prostitution is legal.” What astonished her is the fact that most of the girls are very young. “I was embarrassed to see them asking for money and the way they smoked,” she adds.

The film’s team will soon start shooting in exotic locations of Goa. The project also has Shwetha Pandit and Bhavana Rao in the lead roles. Veer Samarth is the music director.
