Mumbai/IBNS: Mumbai Diaries 26/11 will narrate the events of the attacks in Mumbai that happened back in 2008. While a lot has been said already, the upcoming series by Nikkhil Advani will narrate the tale of the frontline workers, and playing a pivotal role in the series is actress Natasha Bharadwaj.

While she is looking forward to doing quality work, Natasha has revealed how she bagged the role.

Natasha, who plays a resident doctor in the show, went on to reveal, ''I had auditioned for Mumbai Diaries 26/11 and when I was told the part, I knew that I want to do this because as an actor, I am greedy and this was a role that I did not want to let go. It was a really interesting character that had weight''

She adds, "So after I was shortlisted, I waited for almost a month and as I did not hear from them I thought I am not getting the part. Then one day, while I was driving, I got a call about the confirmation, and as soon as I reached home, I asked my mother to give me her lab coat and stethoscope and that's how I broke the news to her because she knew that I had auditioned for this role. It was heartwarming and overwhelming for both of us.''

Mumbai Diaries 26/11 will release on Sept 9 and stream on Amazon Prime Video.
