As the clock ticks closer to the release of the highly anticipated film Bhaje Vaayu Vegam, Iswarya Menon, the talented actress known for her dynamic performances, sits down to share insights into her character and her journey in the industry.
In Bhaje Vaayu Vegam, Iswarya steps into the shoes of Indu, a traditional girl with a natural charm and an unwavering dedication to the story’s narrative. Speaking about her character, Iswarya remarks, “Indu is not just your typical heroine.

Transitioning from her previous role in Spy, where she showcased stylish action sequences, Iswarya embraces the opportunity to explore a different facet of acting. The actress explained, “Playing a traditional character allows me to delve into a new dimension of performance.

Lastly, reflecting on her journey in the industry, Iswarya acknowledges her humble beginnings and the determination that has propelled her career forward. “From a small town in Tamil Nadu to the glitz and glamour of the film industry, it has been a fulfilling journey. I’m grateful for the recognition I’ve received and remain committed to exploring diverse roles and making meaningful contributions to cinema,” she concluded.
