Priyanshu Chatterjee regrets ignoring excellent regional films

- 'I am very strict about content and I also care about what kind of role I am going to play. The film manages to entertain as well as inform.

The film 'Tum Bin' was released in 2001, and the name of its hero Priyanshu Chatterjee has become a household name. After this he did some films like 'Dil Ka Rishta', 'Pinjar', 'Bhootnath' and after that he waited for Bengali films. The reason for this was that Priyanshu did not want to confine himself to Hindi films only. He had to spread the wings of his acting. However, he finds it strange that his presence in non-Hindi films is often misinterpreted as comfortable. This was followed by Priyanshu's Indo-British thrillers 'Barun Rai' and 'The House on the Cliffs'.

After doing Hindi movies like 'Tum Bin', 'Bhootnath' and 'Pinjar', you disappeared from the limelight. So it's natural to be surprised - Priyanshu says in response to such a question, 'Most of the films I was offered after my first film came out were copies of the same film, including' Dil Ka Rishta 'and similar successful love story based films. Also included. My experience with my career and life is not a short-sighted approach. My interest is based on how the subject develops, but it is not only romantic, but also related to humanity and its complexity. All the stories related to life and art or cinema are not based on love or sex alone. I did not take a break from films in the epidemic of Kovid-12. There will be enough evidence of my work from movie listing sites. Apart from Hindi films, I explored numerous subjects in more than one language. It is strange in our country that so many beautiful, powerful non-Hindi films are ignored. Despite winning international and national awards, they are not properly recognized. Bengali films like 'Moner Manush', 'Iti Mrinalini', 'Shunyo Avanko: Act Zero' and some other projects. I consider it my honor to be a part of it, "said Priyanshu.

Talking about films like 'Barun Rai' and 'The House on the Cliff', Priyanshu says, 'Director Sam Banerjee's enthusiasm and his energy aroused my curiosity. It was a British rural horror, but it was based on an Indian perspective. Besides, I haven't been a part of any horror movie yet. So that was another thrill for me. Also, the character of Barun Ray gave me the opportunity to play Feluda, which is a classical directive like Colombo. The film also has a supernatural twist. The number of Indian actors in the film was not enough. It remains to be seen what his next venture will be. '

"I am very strict in terms of content and I am very careful about what kind of role I am going to play. The film manages to entertain as well as inform. That's why I pay special attention to this in my upcoming films. This is a very promising idea. '

"Everyone has endured the retreat caused by the Kovid-12 epidemic. I believe that the whole medium except cinema has suffered a great setback. That is why this change makes us part of all the innovations, which is really fun but also challenging, ”said Priyanshu Chatterjee.
