Actress Samara Tijori said playing a serial killer in the new series Daldal fulfilled a long-held fascination with the criminal mind. Samara, daughter of 1990s star Deepak Tijori, said she once aspired to become a criminologist and spent years reading about serial killers and criminal psychology. “I wanted to be a criminologist, before I wanted to act. Describing the audition process as unconventional, Samara said she was asked to answer basic questions while staying in character. After waiting for a month, Samara said she was overwhelmed when she learnt she had been selected for the role.
