Konkonas working experince with Yahs Raj

And then you have bagged two Yashraj projects.
Aaja Nachley is been directed by Anil Mehta who is a renowned cameraman. This is his first film as a director. Aaja Nachley is going to be a fun song and dance film and its Madhuri Dixits comeback film. She is fabulous. Everyone knows she is a great dancer and a brilliant actress. It's a lovely script.

And the other film is director Pradeep Sarkar's next which is called Laga Chunari Mein Daag. Well it's actually Rani's film. It's her journey from Banaras to Bombay and I am playing her younger sister. It's a great cast. There is Kunal Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan and Anupam Kher. Jaya Bachchan is one of my favorites.

Does it feel any different working with Yashraj?
The one thing that makes me happy about working with Yashraj is that my film will be released for sure. And they will be released with a lot of care as the Yashraj team really looks after every single detail of the film.

In one of your interviews you mentioned that you are more comfortable speaking English and Bengali. How did you manage to get your Hindi dialect in place?
I understand and speak Hindi but not so fluently. The gender really confuses me in Hindi because Bengali dialect doesn't have any gender. So I keep getting my gender mixed up and I don't like to speak it wrong. Acting in the film is not a problem because you are given the dialogues in the hand to memorize it well.

Finally which is the film very close to your heart?
It has to be 15 Park Avenue. I play a girl who is a schizophrenic called Mithi. It was difficult role to play, it was very close to my heart. A very special film directed by my mother, Aparna Sen.
