As nearly all of the movie was shot inside a shifting automobile, when requested if the function was traumatizing and triggering for her in addition to being difficult, Ritika answered, “For me, actually the entire expertise has been like that. Starting from the rehearsals to the look check of the character and to the tip of the movie. Because we shot the complete movie chronologically and we shot it continuous. So the director didn’t need us to take any breaks in between as a result of he didn’t need that stream to interrupt. Because it’s a one-day story. The woman is kidnapped in the night and the movie ends at evening or throughout twilight. Thus, the continuity was extraordinarily necessary.”

She further shared, “So I had to carry continuity in not just in my costume, hair and makeup but the whole look. I had to be in my emotions. If that breaks, then the audience will be able to tell that this is a fresh shot. It was extremely difficult. Essentially, in every project for me, it takes two to three days to sink into the character and get to know the crew. But on this project, it was not only about sinking in but I actually started feeling what the character was going through in the film. Slowly, the lines between reality and movie started getting blurred and it started getting too real for me as a person. There were times when I was supposed to portray a certain emotion like disgust or anxiety and fear. And suddenly when the director used to call it a cut, I would start crying so I had to get out of the car and had to be alone for a bit to gain composure. Because there were so many emotions I used to develop throughout the filming process. Because these characters in the film, they are constantly hurling abuses at me, saying terrible and extremely scary things. After a certain point of time, it just got really difficult for me.”

Speaking about her rapport along with her co-actors, Ritika recalled, “They are literally a really enjoyable bunch. I believe Manish who performs one of many important characters is debuting in this movie. And to see him carry out with that sort of confidence is commendable. His character is the craziest. Among everybody, he’s probably the most surprising and unbelievable sort of a man. And he was so candy and harmless. Everybody was so good and heat, we really turned actually good mates. It was very troublesome to get to a degree the place you might be all hating one another and saying all these items to one another. But it was a really good bunch.”

With InCar being a women-centric film and a directorial debut for Harsh Wardhan, Ritika Singh revealed if she had given any inputs to the director and about certain traits that the film-maker had asked from her to be fit in that role. She said, “There were times when there were certain dialogues for which I had to go to him and give him feedback. And he would take it in a positive way as well. And he used to always give me that freedom to come and tell me these things. He had told me very openly that Ritika you are a woman and you know these things better than any of us. If you feel anything is off and if you feel like telling me anything, please come and do so. And when I read his script for the first time, it was so on point that I didn’t feel like anything needed to be changed. Everything was perfect as it is. But he did give me the freedom to suggest things which are rare with other film-makers. And when it came to performance, he didn’t used to tell me anything. He would just ensure that if I was alright. Everything was very spontaneous.”

Ritika Singh additionally fervently agrees that self-defense courses must be made obligatory for girls throughout colleges and schools. She defined, “100% it ought to occur. I’ve been doing Karate since I used to be three. My dad was my guru. My brother does the identical factor. I’ve been doing it since faculty and I’ve continued it to at the present time. I at all times say that it must be made a part of the varsity curriculum. One might simply dedicate a category on this as soon as each two weeks or a workshop each month. Because greater than studying self-defense, it’s extra about what you are feeling about your self in your thoughts. Because throughout an impending scenario, one couldn’t recall what they learnt. There is a way of panic and that’s when your muscle reminiscence comes into play. How a lot your physique is skilled for an unlucky scenario is set. Because even probably the most sorted particular person will panic so presence of thoughts is equally necessary as to what you may observe in your rapid environment.”
