When Manali Dey called Parambrata Chattopadhyay ‘rude’!

Childhood is a time filled with innocent pranks and playful incidents that often become cherished memories as we grow older. These lighthearted moments are not exclusive to any particular stratum of society; from the person next door to silver screen celebrities, we all have our own tales of mischief and joy. This universality was beautifully illustrated during a special episode of a reality show hosted by the iconic Sourav Ganguly.
During the episode, a nostalgic atmosphere enveloped the stage when Manali Dey, Parambrata Chattopadhyay, Sabyasachi Chakraborty, Gaurab Chakraborty, and others made their appearances. In a delightful twist, Sourav Ganguly decided to share a little-known tidbit about Manali. To the amusement of all, he revealed that Manali was once an avid admirer of Parambrata. Manali's blushing face and Parambrata's surprised reaction made for a heartwarming sight. As Parambrata expressed his doubt regarding the claim, Manali confessed her innocent childhood antics.

Manali took the audience down memory lane as she recounted her days as a third or fourth-grade student. She had developed a strong liking for Parambrata. In an era when landline phones were still there, a young and determined Manali had managed to collect Parambrata's phone number. As soon as she got the number, she used to make anonymous calls to him, leaving no messages. However, whenever Parambrata answered, he'd often politely state his unavailability, sometimes sounding rather rude. The retelling of this incident brought laughter to the stage, with Manali herself chuckling at her sweet memories.

Now, Manali has become a household name juggling between her small screen, film and OTT projects with equal elan. She is currently playing the character Simul in the popular show ‘Kar Kache Koi Moner Kotha’. Manali’s performance in the second season of ‘Gora’ also earned her a lot of appreciation. Meanwhile, Parambrata continues to dazzle his fans with his stellar performances in films and web series.
