We have nothing to say about it: Raima and Riya Sen

Riya and Raima Sen prefer to be mum about their film with Sharman Joshi 


Riya and Raima Sen, who feature in an upcoming film with Sharman Joshi, prefer to be mum about their project that is seeing light of day after almost a decade. Says Raima, “We have nothing to say about it.” 

This explains why there have been no promotions for the long-completed film — as the star cast has nothing to do with the project. 

Ever since the producers Manoj Rastogi and Pramod Sharma and director Ajai Sinha announced that they were releasing the film, Sharman has gone to town about it. He feels the makers are trying to piggyback on the success of his recent release to promote their film.

As reported ‘Now a legal notice to Sharman’ the producers took recourse to the law as they felt Sharman was defaming their film. They felt as the actors had been paid for the film they had no right to say anything about the release date.

Riya Sen now game for Bengali movies

After making her debut in Bengali films with a small role in Rituparno Ghosh's Abohomaan, Riya Sen says she is open to do movies of all genres in her mother tongue. Riya, who began her acting career in 1991 as a child artiste with Hindi film "Vishkanya", says her foray into Bengali films got delayed as she wanted her first Bengali film to be directed by Ghosh.

"I always wanted my first film to be directed by him. And I must say I thoroughly enjoyed working with him. He is a family friend. I was very comfortable," Riya told IANS in an interview. She played the daughter-in-law of the protagonist in Abohomaan, produced by Reliance BIG Pictures, and says she loved the role of the young, middle-class Bengali bride.

"She is rebellious and English speaking. I was completely at home," she said. "Now that I have started acting in Bengali films, I will look forward to working with various directors. I would like to act in films of all genres," added the 29-year-old model-turned-actress.

Riya and her sister Raima will now appear on screen in Ghosh's yet-to-be-released Hindi movie "Noukadubi". Though the siblings don't have a single scene together, Riya said it was a "lovely experience". "She (Raima) was extremely caring. She took care of all my needs," said Riya. When told that people would now start comparing them, Riya said: "Well, I guess people will do that. But there is no competition between us. We don't see each other as rivals.

Asked whether she was satisfied with the way her film career has progressed, Riya said: "Yeah, I am very happy. I have lately been choosy about films. When you start your career, you act in all kinds of movies. You don't pick and choose. But later on, you may feel that there were some films where you should have given a second thought before saying yes."

The actress, who has acted in Bollywood hits like Jhankaar Beats, Qayamat and Apna Sapna Money Money, says walking the ramp made her more confident while facing the camera as an actress. "I guess the experience adds to one's confidence, though not to a large extent." Daughter of former Bollywood diva Moon Moon Sen and granddaughter of Bengali film legend Suchitra Sen, Riya claims hard work and not lineage made her a successful actor.

"It is after all hard work and sheer hard work which pays. And I am game for slogging it out. I don't care if people compare me to my grandmother. I can never be like my grandmother. Nor was my grandmother ever like me. People may compare me with her or my mother Moon Moon. But I am cool about it," she said.

Riya Sens TV Debut

Riya Sen makes her TV debut with a cameo in Paritosh Painter’s Shri Adi Manav. She plays herself in an episode in which the heroes enter a Win A Date with Riya Sen competition. A source from the programme says, “Despite being a Bollywood celeb she was very polite to her co-stars in the serial and thus exhibited a perfect example of being the ‘down to earth’ gorgeous diva.”

Riya also makes a small appearance in the Rituparno Ghosh Bengali movie Abhomaan. How did that come about? “I spoke to Rituparno over the phone and the next thing I knew was that I was in Calcutta,” she explains, “I didn’t ask him anything about the film or my character. I had no clue what I was going to be offered. I went to the sets with a totally blank mind and in the next 45 minutes I was delivering!” Riya sees the performance as a taster for her first real Ghosh film Noukodubi, which releases shortly.

Meanwhile, Riya’s slate is fully booked for the near future. “I am doing a satirical comedy called Benny and Bablu,” she confides, “I play a receptionist who gets into prostitution without knowing what she is getting into. It’s got an ensemble cast including Kay Kay Menon. I am also doing Jennifer, a supernatural thriller. Eddy Seth, a guy from theatre, is opposite me. We are the protagonists and it’s not a typical blood-and-horror film.”
