True Blood révén lehet ismerős, illetve a

@bazaarindia asked me to take an phone pic of myself for a cover. I took a thousand and this was the least pensive, if you can believe it. 🖤Now that I have y’here: I'd like to acknowledge that I, like many other South Asians, am the child of immigrants that had opportunities here because of the Immigration Act of 1965. This wouldn't have been possible without the civil rights movement that began in the 1940s. I am grateful to the African American people that bore the burden of it. 🖤 REPOST @bazaarindia - - - Meet Janina Gavankar—an actor, pianist, vocalist, orchestra percussionist, voice artist for video games, photographer of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Christmas card… A multi-hyphenate, her recent acting credits include Apple original The Morning Show and The Way Back with Ben Affleck. “Not everyone is thriving—and that is ok,” says Janina Gavankar, on the pressure to be productive during lockdown. To make every day of a global pandemic a race to achieve one’s personal best. The self-confessed “workaholic” who most recently appeared on The Morning Show and The Way Back, is also learning to pause during this time. “Anyone who blindly advises everyone to ‘stay busy!’ or ‘get creative!’ is ignoring those with anxiety, depression, or a sensitivity to the collective grief we’re all sharing.” “Hollywood is changing, and is more open to us, but we have a long way to go,” says Janina Gavankar, on South Asian representation on screen. Most recently, you’ve seen her on The Morning Show, with Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon; alongside Ben Affleck in The Way Back; and in the Netflix ensemble comedy Space Force. “Things will change faster when more of us are behind the scenes.” Janina Gavankar is many things—an actor, pianist, vocalist, orchestra percussionist, among others. During this global lockdown, she’s learned she’s also a workaholic. “I’ve realized that my self-worth is attached to my workaholic nature, and I need to reframe my identity on something healthier,” she says.

Most pedig egy olyan szörnyfilmre készül a bombay-i gyökerű amerikai színésznő, mely a hindu mitológián alapszik.
A 39 éves hölgy nem csak, hogy szereplőként fog felbukkanni a Russo Schellinggel közös újabb projektjében, de a történet szálait is szőni fogja. A munka gyümölcsözőnek ígérkezik, ugyanis a Stucco című rövidfilmjük már SXSW-díjat is nyert kreativitásáért.
Amit eddig lehet tudni, az az, hogy Gavankar a Rakshasa nevű démont fogja megszemélyesíteni. Ez a szörnyeteg, miután kiesik az isteni világból, az emberiségre támad. Indiában kerül sor a forgatásra, szinkronban azzal, hogy a színésznőnek jelenése van az
Invasion című űrlényes moziban is.
Ez utóbbi Amazonos sci-fi thriller Michael Pearce, Joe Barton, Octavia Spencer és
Riz Ahmed közreműködésével készül, mely filmben az utóbbi szereplő ex-feleségét fogja alakítani, tájékoztat a
