Ritika acts as Rape survivor in the movie 'In Car'. She went on to say, I had to maintain consistency across the entire look, not just in my costume, hair, and makeup. I needed to be in my feelings. The audience will be able to tell that this is a new shot if that breaks. It was very challenging. Well, it takes me two to three days to get into the character and get to know the crew on every production. For this assignment, however, it wasn't just about getting it; I genuinely began to feel what the character was going through. 

The line between reality and a movie began to blur with time, and it eventually became too real for me personally. There were instances when I had to convey a particular emotion, like revulsion or terror or worry. I used to start crying when the director would ask for a cut, so I had to get out of the car and sit by myself for a while to collect myself.

I used to have a lot of different emotions when filming because of this. Due to the fact that these characters in the movie are continually cursing at me and saying awful things that are genuinely terrifying. It just started to get pretty difficult for me after a while.
