Where have the Sens disappeared?

Where have the Sens disappeared?
Is there a quiet change taking place in the Sen dynasty of Tollywood? Raima, the elder sibling, who was always accorded prima donna status here, seems to be slowly phasing out of the industry. She did make an appearance at IFFI in Goa with Bastu Shaap, but I don't know of any other film she's signed in Tollywood. Is it age catching up or `meaningful' offers coming from Bollywood? Raima certainly seems to be spending more time in Mumbai these days.And filling her place is little sis Riya.

A late bloomer, she kept pace with Raima's histrionics in Noukadubi. After missing most of the action in Tollywood for years, Riya, it seems, is back with a flurry of roles. Though Hero 420 and Dark Chocolate didn't work, I'll watch out for her turn in Riingo's Senapati. And what about Mrs Sen? She is busy managing the state's politics and her own pallu.
There's a priceless story about her that I must tell you. Some months back, the cast of Hero 420 was canning a swimming pool scene. Riya, who was playing the second lead, had to flaunt a fluorescent green bikini.When it was time for the shot, our girl demurred and refused to take off the shirt she was wearing on top of the two-piece. Obviously , the director called up mummy Sen for help. Moon Moon made a small suggestion. If Riya did the scene, the director too would have to wear fluorescent green swimming trunks and get into the pool. Poor director, what choice did he have?
When he agreed, Riya took pity on him, slipped out of her shirt and got into the pool. Everyone sighed in relief, and I'm sure Mrs Sen was breaking out in peals of laughter.They simply don't make 'em like her anymore!
