Actress Chitrangada Singh, who was recently seen in the OTT series ‘Khakee: The Bengal Chapter’, spoke about comparisons between her and the late actress Smita Patil.
On Wednesday, the actress took to her Instagram, and shared a video with a mobile phone brand, and shared how after the screening of her debut movie ‘Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi’, many established names of the film fraternity formed a bee line to complement her work in the film, and also spoke how she has a striking resemblance to the late actress.
In the video, Chitrangada said, “My first film, ‘Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi’, first screening, it was the first time that I saw myself on the big screen. After the screening, Ketan Mehta, the director, who`s done so much work with Smita ji, walked up to me and he had tears in his eyes and he said, ‘Today, it almost felt like I saw Smita on screen’”.
