No birthday break for Nandita Roy

There was a time when they would make just one film a year. But Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee have come a long way since then. The directors, who prefer to shoot in winter, are braving the heat to shoot their next — Kantho — the story of a cancer survivor. Nandita, the captain of the ship, did not take a break even on her birthday today. As the unit broke for lunch, she cut a cake and had some her friends dropping in to be by her side.The unit made special arrangements for lunch. It’s heard they have made her favourite mutton dish to make the day a bit special for the director.
