Why Raat Akeli Hai 2 Became an Instant Yes for Chitrangda Singh

Chitrangda Singh doesn’t pick projects for noise. She picks them for the feeling they leave behind. And that’s exactly why Raat Akeli Hai: The Bansal Murders became an immediate yes.

Raat Akeli Hai 2 had that quiet tension and emotional weight that I find irresistible. The character lives in these grey, unsettling spaces, and exploring that was both challenging and deeply fulfilling. It’s the kind of part that changes you a little, and those are the roles I say yes to,” she says. For her, the world of this film sits in that sweet spot she gravitates toward: human psychology, buried secrets, moral ambiguity. Stories that don’t end when the credits roll, but stay with you, tugging at some corner of your mind. RAH 2 offered her a character built with shadows, contradictions, and emotional residue. The kind of material she loves peeling back layer by layer. She’s been consciously leaning into work that expands her creative vocabulary. This year alone, she’s swung from broad comedy to a brooding crime thriller, and now has a big canvas drama like Battle of Galwan on the way. Even her upcoming podcast is rooted in deeper, more reflective conversations. It’s a phase where she’s choosing longevity and substance over scale, shaping a filmography that feels intentional and textured. With RAH 2, she saw a chance to explore that again. A role that isn’t loud, but potent. A story that lingers. And an emotional world she couldn’t resist stepping into.
