Mumbai: Actor Jisshu Sengupta will be seen essaying the role of a cop in the upcoming horror flick, Durgamati. Jisshu Sengupta however, has said he is not one of those actors who rehearse before going on set.
“I am a very spontaneous actor. I don’t rehearse myself and go on set. As an actor, I trust my director and, of course, I have my own way of creating a character. I definitely discuss with the director,” said Jisshu.
The actor also talked about his role of ACP Abhay Singh in the G Ashok directorial Durgamati. “It’s a role I haven’t done in Hindi films as of now. It’s a very strong character. There is something different about this character. It hooked me to this film, said Jisshu, who is popular in Bengali filmdom.
“In this case, Ashok ji said, ‘whatever you have thought, just do it your way’. When a director gives you that liberty to express yourself as an ACP, it feels great,” informed Jisshu added.
The film stars Bhumi Pednekar in the central role, with Arshad Warsi and Mahie Gill. It tells the story of an innocent government officer who is made a victim of a major conspiracy involving powerful forces.
For those who may have forgotten Jisshu, he played the role of Kangana Ranaut’s husband in the historical drama Manikarnika.
