Amartya Ray, who got rave reviews for his acting in Uronchondi, is back in Kolkata from Pune where he studies in FTII. Talking about his
Puja plans, the youngster told us, “There’s a Puja at home. The highlight of the Puja is Chandipath by my grandmom. This is one time of the year when the entire family comes together. My mother (
Chaiti Ghoshal) keeps a busy schedule and I sometimes accompany her on Puja parikrama events.
That helps me catch up on some of the best theme Pujas in the city. I love pandal-hopping with my friends and don’t even mind the crowd. Every year, I go to Maddox Square with my friends and it’s going to be no different this time around. I am planning to buy a toy pistol cracker. Also, I want to eat to my heart’s content. I have been missing Kolkata food for long.” On the work front, Amartya is looking for the release of his
Hindi film, 22 Yards. The film was in competition in the Bay Area South Asian Film Festival. “I have also scored for the film and I am really excited about it,” he said. Amartya is looking forward to the six Bengali releases during Puja. “I want to catch all of them. In fact, I will catch all of them,” he signed off.
