Chhorii 2 Child Actor Hardika Sharma Says She Plays Young Samantha In Rakt Brahmand: 'I Met Her...' | Exclusive
Hardika Sharma, a 10-year-old child artist, stars in Netflix's Rakt Brahmand. She spoke to News18 about playing younger version of Samantha in the upcoming Netflix series.
Hardika Sharma might be just 10 years old, but talk to her and you’ll realise that she already has life figured out. She played Nushrratt Bharuccha’s daughter, Ishani, in Prime Video’s latest horror film, Chhori 2 and left cinephiles spellbound with her performance. As the film continues to trend, News18 Showsha got in touch with little Hardika to speak about the film. Without divulging any details, Hardika told us that she is also a part of Raj and DK’s upcoming film, Rakt Brahmand, as Samantha’s younger version.
Hardika is seamlessly balancing life between school and shoots, of course, with her parents overlooking her studies alongside her already lit acting career. For the unversed, we saw Hardika as the younger version of Samantha in Prime Video’s Citadel: Honey Bunny. She excitedly shared that she has also taken on the role of young Samantha in Netflix’s Rakt Brahmand.

She said, “I couldn’t get a chance to meet her as I played her younger version [in Citadel: Honey Bunny]. But my upcoming project Rakt Brahmand is coming on Netflix, in which I’m playing her younger version again."
While Hardika hasn’t had an opportunity to share screen space with the South superstar yet, she is happy that she finally met Samantha on the sets of the fantasy television series. “I did not have scenes with her, they were shot separately. But yes, when she came to the set, I met her and she’s really cheerful and I loved how focused she is," Hardika cheerfully told us. She also said, “I’m really excited for the project. You’ll see why when you watch it," the popular child actor said, promising that she will talk more about the series after its release.
Hardika also played young Ananya Panday in Call Me Bae. Expressing fondness for the Kesari 2 star, she said, “I want to be like her, and she’s very cute. She’s very nice." When asked if they’ve met yet, Hardika quipped, “No, I haven’t met her yet, but I have seen her movies. I played her younger version in the series, so I couldn’t meet her."
We also asked Hardika to name a film or series starring Ananya that she likes the most. The little one had a witty reply — she chose Call Me Bae, as she was also part of the series and admired the actor’s acting prowess.
Apart from this, Hardika told us that Kareena Kapoor Khan is her favourite actress and that she has worked with her in advertisements. She also spoke about sharing screen space with Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan in ad films. She signed off by saying that she now hopes to work on big projects with them.
Stay tuned to know what Hardika Sharma has to say about working with Nushrratt Bharuccha and Soha Ali Khan in Chhorii 2.
