Ira's play — Euripides' Medea
Ira said that there was no particular reason for her to chose the medium of theatre for her debut. She called theatre magical, all-consuming and went on to call it real as well as physical in the world of technology. Ira further added that she loves the suspension of disbelief that the audience allows for because there is so much that you can express.
Ira had recently revealed about her much-awaited debut on her social media handle and had expressed her excitement regarding the project. She had also shared a BTS picture of herself preparing for the play. She had revealed in the caption that sometimes she forgets to find time to sit down and do her own homework amidst such a huge team and so many people to coordinate with.
