While fans are eagerly waiting for the third instalment of Mismatched, YouTube sensation and actor Prajakta Koli has been engrossed in different things. The boost from her last audio series, Desi Down Under, got her to sign up for Marvel’s Wastelanders: Hawkeye. She says that the Audible series that had her teaming up with Jaideep Ahlawat’s Hawkeye “got her nervous”, but she built her confidence under the tutelage of director Mantra Mugdh.
Having explored the Marvel universe with the Iron Man franchise, Koli says taking up the project was a no-brainer, especially playing a grey character. “Ash is not all-white. She is not someone who is doing things for the betterment of the world. She has her own selfish reasons; at the same time, she is protective of the people she loves. If anyone came to hurt them, she wouldn’t blink twice before shooting an arrow through their hearts. It’s similar to Hawkeye, who has also had his phases of being morally grey,” says the actor.
