In an industry often defined by image, Tamannaah Bhatia continues to stand apart grounded, self-aware, and delightfully unfiltered. In her recent conversation with Bazaar India, the actress peeled back the layers of her persona, revealing the philosophy that drives both her choices and her calm amid the chaos.
“I’m half Sagittarius and half Capricorn, if that’s something I’m a cusp,” she laughed, describing herself as a mix of spontaneity and structure. “I like adventure and freedom, but I like to structure that adventure and freedom, which means you’ll always see me in something that’s half-structured and half-flowy. Curated chaos. That is where I want to take this conversation.”
For Tamannaah, authenticity is her quiet rebellion in an age of digital perfection. “I take my job very seriously, but I don’t take myself seriously,” she explained. “There’s so much pressure to put out a certain version of yourself. When you take yourself too seriously, you start calculating. But no one really knows what to do we’re all winging it. And that’s the best part.”
Her filmography reflects that same sense of exploration she gravitates toward roles that challenge her rather than mirror her real self. “It would be sad to only play yourself,” she said thoughtfully. “The purpose of being an actor is to play things that are not you. Some people say, ‘I relate to the character so much because it’s me.’ But then, why would you want to play different people?”
Tamannaah draws a parallel between her artistic evolution and her love for cinema. “If anybody really wants to understand me, they should just watch the movie Divergent. I discovered a lot about myself through films they’ve always ignited something in me.”
Reflecting on the sameness often seen in contemporary aesthetics, she believes individuality is where true acceptance lies. “It takes courage to not be in that mentality of ‘Will I be accepted if I do this completely different thing?’ Acceptance rarely comes from following the herd. It actually comes from being more of who you are which is unique to you.”
In her words and her work, Tamannaah continues to embody her philosophy of “curated chaos” a balance of discipline and spontaneity, realness and reinvention.
