Antique art dealer plays the lead in Rupsha Guha’s directorial

Actress

Rupsha Guha

completed shooting for her second film titled How Are You Feroz?. “We started shooting for the film from January 8 and completed it on January 15. We were worried because of the third wave but thankfully, we could complete the film without anyone getting affected by the virus. The dubbing is yet to be done,” said Rupsha. Talking about the film, the actress informed, “The film is about an antique art dealer and how he gets attached to his furniture to the point that he thinks twice before selling anything to a customer. What happens to Feroz later is what the open-ended film is all about. I wanted a professional actor to play Feroz’s character but couldn’t find any. Later, I cast Schiraaz Tangsalwala , the antique art dealer who inspired me to pen the story. I wanted to cast him because he best fitted the role and I could not visualise any other face. It was very difficult to shoot with a non-actor like him but he managed and played the character well. Kheya Chattopadhyay plays a pivotal character in this film.”
Why didn’t she play a character in this film, we asked Rupsha. “It is very difficult to direct and act at the same time. It was an overwhelming experience to direct this film,” said the actress.
Rupsha just completed Ashoke Viswanathan’s short film based on

William Shakespeare

. “I will soon start working with Ashoke da on a stage production,” said the actress who plays an important character in the serial Mithai.
