'Deadline' is directed by Tanvir Khan who has earlier made Madhoshi .
''I play Sanjana Goenka, whose child is kidnapped. It's a thriller and I am very excited,'' Konkana said.
Irfaan plays the kidnapper in the film. He was all praise for the talent and abilities of Konkana and felt she had it in her to carry on the legacy of late Smita Patil and Shabana Azmi .
Konkana, daughter of ace film-maker Aparna Sen, had made her debut with a bang in 'Mr. and Mrs. Iyer' for which she won a National Award.
The Madhur Bhandarkar -directed 'Page 3', in which she played a journalist, was also critically acclaimed and won the appreciation at the box office. The film was also honoured with a National Award this year.
