"Nikita Tewani (Nasrin), is a versatile actress able to play the clown and the unraveling teenager with brilliant skill." - NY Theatre Guide (The Fall) “Mesmerizing in her role as Laila’s child (Aziza), Nikita Tewani pulls the heartstrings like none other" - Seattle Pockets (A Thousand Splendid Suns “..the real star is Nikita Tewani who plays Dua. She has a fantastic screen presence, and the way she finds her stride in moments of dance and personal exploration is very well-done.”
