For the uninitiated, Adah's film Bastar is inspired by the true event of the Naxalite–Maoist insurgency in the Bastar district of Chhattisgarh. The political thriller has been backed by Vipul Amrutalal Shah. Apart from Sharma, the star cast of the movie includes Indira Tiwari, Yashpal Sharma, Raima Sen, Shilpa Shukla and many others.
Adah Sharma on the impact of Bastar
While talking about her film Bastar with Pinkvilla, Adah Sharma stated the film's story should scare the audience. Revealing the reason behind it, the actress said, "It shouldn't just touch you; it should scar you, it should shake you up as would not just me being an actor but any other girl, any other person from our country who has patriotism in their hearts, who loves their country. If you say 76 of our jawans were brutally killed by people who lived in our country, then it should shake you up a lot."
