"I worked with Sita on several scenes during a high-end television production in 2024. The show, or nature of the work, cannot be identified for contractual reasons. Sita proved herself a valued member of my directorial team. She brought a calm presence to the set, as well as a thorough knowledge of the script, both of which allowed her to put the actors at their ease. She is a sensitive and thoughtful collaborator for any director."
