Chandan Roy Sanyal, who was last seen in the ill-fated Bangistaan, is super-excited about his next flick, which is Saif Ali Khan's Chef. The actor will be seen playing a sous chef to Saif's titular character in the comedy-drama. His character, Nazrul, fondly refers to Saif as 'Guru' in the film.

Chandan in an interview to Mumbai Mirror further revealed, "My character works with Saif in a New York restaurant and is a self-appointed disciple," informs the 36-year-old actor who has already shot for 70 percent of the film and will resume for the remaining portions in January. We are currently on a Christmas break."

He said, "Raja has adapted the film beautifully by adding Indian flavours and food to it. It's set in Kerala, Goa, Amritsar and Delhi," further revealing that he enjoys cooking Indian and Bengali cuisine, and that mutton curry and poshto dal bhat are his favourites.

When asked about his off-screen equation with Saif, Chandan added, "We got along well because we have similar taste in cinema and literature. Saif is great fun to work with. We did a few workshops together to learn how to cut vegetables, toss veggies in a pan, among other things, like professional chefs. He keeps telling me that he will invite me to his place. Maybe it will happen soon."

Chef is the Bollywood adaptation of the Jon Favreau-starrer 2014 Hollywood film of the same name.

Meanwhile, the actor will also be seen in Shahrukh Khan- Anushka Sharma starrer The Ring which has him playing an illegal Bangladesh immigrant.
