The gorgeous Sen sisters are coming together for a film for the first time in Rituparno Ghosh’s adaptation of Tagore’s novel Nauka Dubi and they will do some scenes together in the film because Raima Sen feels that the audience would definitely appreciate that.
“There’s no way the audience will accept me and my sister in the same movie without having scenes together. In the original story our characters don’t come together at all. But Riya and I have to come face to face in our first film together.”
Riya and Raima were supposed to come together earlier in Vicky Chopra’s Seasons Greetings. But that didn’t work out. It was an episodic film and they just had a small segment to work in.
Also, Raima who is to be credited for bringing this project together does not want her film to be dubbed in Hindi. She says, “I know how strange it sounds when my Bengali films are dubbed into Hindi. It happened with Anuranan and more recently with Khela. When Pradeep Sarkar went to see Khela he told me he had gone to see a Bengali film. He ended up watching a Hindi film. Rabindranath Tagore’s characters will look very strange talking in Hindi.”
