Actor Freida Pinto-voiced animated show Mira, Royal Detective, revolves around Mira, a brave and resourceful girl who is appointed for the role of royal detective by the queen.
She says, “There will be many things you recognise if you are from India. Right from the care, attention and detail taken to focus on costume, food, conversation about food and words that are being used. At the end of the day, this is an international show, but the creators of the show have been so mindful as to not isolate those watching it in India who are growing up in this culture. So, it feels like there is a convergence of international appeal and the Indian story.”
She further added, “I think Queen Shanti and I have this one thing in common. We both like to lead, and I think while I was voicing the character of Queen Shanti, I did embody those leadership qualities. So, I feel the thing that I learned from her is to lead with grace and to come from a place of kindness.”
(The show is available on Disney+ Hotstar Premium.)
