Abhishek Banerjee on Ajeeb Daastaans, shooting a dark story & working with director Raj Mehta

With five big films in his bag, Abhishek Banerjee is on roll! The actor is now all set to entertain his ardent fans with his upcoming project, an anthology by Dharma productions titled as Ajeeb Daastaans.

While Abhishek will be seen headlining the film with the gorgeous actress Nushrratt Bharuccha, this would be his first collaboration with the 'Good News' director Raj Mehta.

Sharing his experience on working with Raj, Abhishek says in a statement shared by his team: 

Raj Mehta is truly one of the best directors I have worked with! The amazing thing which I always recall with Raj is about the time when Good news had not released and I remember him being under pressure to finish the post production of the film but he made the process such an easy ride. It was really commendable. Additionally, I couldn’t believe that someone with his sense of humour is making this dark story! I really enjoyed the shoot which is usually a rarity when you are shooting for a dark subject. And that was possible for Raj and the entire crew.
