Chitrangda Singh: Abhishek Bachchan is easy, warm and kind

Chitrangda Singh

Ahead of the release of Bob Biswas, actor Chitrangda Singh shared her experience of working with Abhishek Bachchan in the film. "It was fairly easy to build a rapport with someone as easy, warm, kind and friendly as Abhishek. As a co-actor, he is open to improvising, in case you want something done differently. So, I did not feel it would be difficult to develop that comfort [level]. Hopefully, this will reflect on screen as well, as far as our equation [is concerned]. This film is in its essence, a love story, and [it is important for that] ease, friendship and rapport to reflect on the screen," she said.

Helmed by debutante director Diya Ghosh, the upcoming project revolves around the contract killer Bob Biswas, featured originally in Vidya Balan's hit Kahaani. The part was essayed by Saswata Chatterjee in the film. The spin-off, which will feature Bachchan in the role, is scheduled to release on ZEE5 on December 3.

Meanwhile, Bachchan recently revealed that he added several kilos to play the part in the film, and chose against wearing a body-suit, citing that it restricts movement. While he had previously gained weight for Guru, he significantly piled on the kilos for this film, hitting 105 kilos on the weighing scale.

In an interview with mid-day, he spoke about living up to his father Amitabh Bachchan's expectations with Bob Biswas. "To get your idol to recognise your work, to see your work, is a huge compliment. Let alone if you do good work and he thinks you've done good work," he had said of Big B's approval of act, as seen in the trailer.
