Dhrubo Banerjee is all praise for Dada

Dhrubo

Banerjee wrote on social media: “This gentleman was severely sleep deprived, 72 hrs to be precise with frantic meetings, travel & shoot... yet he came right on time, dubbed effortlessly for the AD’s we had shot a while ago and kept his smile on. (sic)”

When CT got in touch with the director, he kept on praising Sourav Ganguly, with whom he had an ad shoot for the past two days. “Like any other

cricket

buff and a Bangali, I am a huge fan of

Dada

. I was just blown away after working with him for the past two days. After becoming the president of BCCI, he has been constantly travelling for meetings. But when he came on the sets, he was full of energy. When he came for the shoot, he was sleep deprived. But, after having a cup of coffee, he was ready for the shoot. He is extremely friendly with everyone on the sets and the best part is his smile. I must say he is a good actor too. Every shot he gave was brilliant. He is a director’s actor and is willingly to explore himself in front of the camera. Be it a spot boy or my assistant director, he asked everyone’s name and was chit-chatting with them. The most important thing that I felt about him is that he is a positive man and his smile is infectious,” said Dhrubo, who will be flying off to Bangladesh on Monday.

Did he discuss cricket with Sourav, we ask him. “Well, we spoke about everything, be it films or cricket. I told him other than him, my all-time favourite players are

Viv Richards

and Sachin Tendulkar,” said Dhrubo.
