Jaya Ahsan’s Bollywood debut confirmed

Bangladeshi actress Jaya Ahsan is now officially confirmed as a cast member of Indian filmmaker Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury's next project.

Jaya was seen in photographs with her co-actors including Bollywood actor Pankaj Tripathi, actress Sanjana Sanghi, Malayalam blockbuster film ‘Charlie’-famed actress Parvathy Thiruvothu and others, alongside the director and producer on Wednesday, reports UNB.

Jointly written by Viraf Sarkari, Ritesh Shah and Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury, shooting for the film began on Wednesday. The film is being shot in Mumbai and Kolkata. It is an investigative drama with a heart-warming story, centred around the coming together of a dysfunctional family.

Describing her feelings, Jaya Ahsan said to the Times of India that she is excited to be a part of the film.

“This is my first film in Hindi and my character is an integral part of the movie. When this offer came to me, I was thrilled and said yes immediately because Aniruddha is the director, and I have Pankaj Tripathi as one of my co-actors. I have always wanted to work with them and the fact that it’s my first Hindi film doubles the delight,” said Jaya.
