NEW DELHI: Actor Parambrata Chatterjee, who impressed the audience with his performance in emotional thriller “Kahaani”, has revealed director Sujoy Ghosh offered him a part in its sequel too but he had to turn it down due to dates issues.
“I was offered a certain part in the film but I could not manage dates as I was busy with something else. But I am hoping to do Sujoy’s next after ‘Kahaani 2’,” the Bengali star told reporters here.
“Kahaani”, which released in 2012, marked the actor’s Bollywood debut. The sequel brings back actress Vidya Balan from the original and features Arjun Rampal as the addition to the series.
Parambrata’s second Hindi film, “Traffic”, released earlier this year.
When asked why he did not sign more Bollywood films, the 36-year-old actor said, “Hindi films will obviously give me wider fanbase but there is umbilical cord connecting me to Bengali cinema like it would connect a Marathi actor to cinema of his state,” he said on the sidelines of the first edition of BRICS Film Festival.
Parambrata said even though there is more money in Bollywood, he feels closer to the cinema of his state. (AGENCIES)
