Showdown at Tolly

<div class="section1"><div class="Normal">Tinsel town buzz says that ace actress Rituparna Sengupta has apparently been dropped from director Anjan Choudhury’s forthcoming film Juddho. <br />The film which also stars Tapas Pal is a hardcore commercial film with all the masala. Talking about the recent tiff with actress Rituparna Sengupta, Choudhury said, “I have been continuously asking for dates from Rituparna and she has been refusing me.<br />" When my assistant director Babu approached her for dates to complete Juddho, she said that the shooting has to be placed according to her available dates which did not suit us. This sort of a behaviour has really upset me and I have decided to cast another actress in her role.� <br />The new actress walking in the shoes of Rituparna is no one else but the gorgeous Debasree Roy. However, when Calcutta Times approached the ace actress, the story seemed to be somewhat different. “These are all wrong allegations. I have always tried to adjust dates with everyone and I had given the dates to Anjanda as well. I had given the dates from June 3 till June 12. All of a sudden his assistant called me and said that the shootings were to take place from May 27. Although it was difficult but I adjusted and gave dates. I had only asked them to adjust some dates after June 5. Such adjustments are common in the industry.� <br />A visibly upset Ritu also said, “Anjanda used me for all publicity and now he is acting queer. I am really hurt. I don’t think I will work with him ever again.� <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">tanuja.dasgupta@timesgroup.com</span> </div> </div>
