Arpita Mukherjee has landed a role she perhaps was never ready for – as someone involved so deep in a scam that her life has now turned upside down.

The former actress appeared in two films sharing the screen with superstars like Prosenjit Chatterjee and Jeet. Her career started as a model way back in 2004 and after a few years of struggle, finally in 2008, she bagged a key role in the film ‘Partner’ alongside Jeet. In 2010, she was again seen in the film 'Mama Bhagne' which had Prosenjit Chatterjee in the lead. In 2011, she was again part of a film 'Bangla Bachao' which had stars like Paoli Dam, Prasenjit Chatterjee and others.

However, Arpita’s only Bengali film as a lead actress came in 2012. Titled ‘Hridoye Lekho Naam’, the film was directed by Dayal Acharya. Apart from Arpita, it also had Trambak, Mrinal Mukherjee and Rita Koyral in pivotal roles. The story revolved around a girl and a boy who initially don’t like each other but eventually fall in love. The plot takes a turn when they escape from their house. Arpita’s acting in the film impressed the director and even the producer of the film but soon she lost her focus and became more interested in the glitz and glamour of a ‘page 3’ life.

Arpita even tried her hand in six Odia films, including 'Vande Utkal Janani,' 'Prema Rogi,' 'Kemiti Aa Bandhana,' 'Mu Kana Ete Kharap,' and 'Raju Awaara', as well. Now, speculation is rife that she might have invested black money in the Odia film industry.
