It's impossible to do all my mother's film: Konkona
|
Konkona Sen Sharma, who couldn't work in Aparna Sen's latest film
because she was busy with Yash Raj Films' "Laaga Chunri Mein Daag"
and "Aaja Nachle", says it is not practically possible for her to
be part of all the films made by her mother.
However, Konkona felt left out when her mother conducted workshops
for "The Japanese Wife", which stars Raima Sen and Rahul Bose.
She said: "I felt so left out when ma conducted workshops for 'The
Japanese Wife' in my house in Mumbai. I'd be peeping from behind
the curtain enviously.
"I'd even join in a couple of times just to feel a part of it. But
let's be practical. It's impossible to be in all her films.
We've our individual careers. And it would be silly of her to fit
me into every film just because I'm her daughter."
She says her mother insisted on her to do Yash Raj's films.
"Ma insisted that I do the two Yash Raj films, the banner being
what it is and all that. Also, let me tell you ma thinks Raima
suited the role far better than me. It's a lovely role where Raima
has to express herself through her silences.
"No regrets because working with Anil Mehta and Pradeep Sarkar have
been a great learning experience. And to work with Madhuri Dixit in
'Aaja Nachle' is something I'd never forget."
