Mumbai: Canadian-Indian actress and TV presenter Tina Thadani is set to play a half Japanese and French character on the show “Guru”, which is a Paris production.
Indian actors are generally stereotyped in international projects. Is it the same with her?
“No, it’s not an Indian role. I play a half Japanese and French assistant of Yakuza. I speak in English and French in the pilot. They had seen some of my previous work and then got in touch with me. I was told to send my audition tape,” Tina, who has acted in short films like “Drifters” and “The Mole”, told media persons.
Indo-Canadian actress Tina Thadani sets to play Japanese and French character:

The story revolves around a man who can read women’s thoughts.
