Elli AvrRam shares her experience of playing Mrs. Sylvia Nanavati in The Verdict - State Vs Nanavati

The gorgeous Elli AvrRam is on cloud nine as she is all set to portray Mrs. Sylvia Nanavati in Alt Balaji’s upcoming web-series – The Verdict - State Vs Nanavati. The recently released trailer of the series has established one fact for certain – Elli is sure to leave the audience gobsmacked with her acting chops. In the trailer, Elli is not only looking stunning in her period get-up but is also brilliantly emoting Sylvia’s vulnerability through her eyes.

Elli can’t thank Ekta Kapoor enough for giving her this opportunity, she said,
"I am really grateful to Ekta ma'am for believing in me after seeing my audition and giving me this opportunity. I’m also grateful to my director Shashant Shah who thought of me for this role. Sylvia is a very vulnerable character and it’s the first time I’ve got to play all kinds of emotions, even of a mother and a wife, which is something I’ve never been in real life. 

"The journey of discovering my character and imagining what real Sylvia must have gone through at that time and from my own experiences putting my role together is what excites me as an actress. I’m extremely excited for the show to release and I’m hoping everyone will enjoy seeing the Nanavati story being told in a different way for the first time."

Alt Balaji’s The Verdict - State Vs Nanavati is based on the real-life incident of 1959 and follows the trial of naval officer KM Nanavati who shot three bullets from his revolver at a businessman and later confessed his crime to the police. Even after six decades the infamous story of K.M. Nanavati Vs. The state of Maharashtra is still one of the most sensational criminal cases in India and marks a landmark judgement in the history of India.

Directed by Shashant Shah, the 10-episode series also stars Manav Kaul, Angad Bedi, Sumeet Vyas, Kubbra Sait, Makrand Deshpande, Saurabh Shukla, Swanand Kirikire and Viraf Ashish Patel in pivotal roles.
