Ever since the Bhatts have zeroed on Shiney Ahuja to play the role of Mahesh Bhatt in WOH LAMHE, filmmaker Vinta Nanda has been receiving calls about the actor she would opt for to play the role, in her film on Mahesh Bhatt's life. The obvious choice would be Rahul Bose, knowing that Bose is known to be Vinta's favorite actor and also has the intensity that such a character requires. However Vinta prefers to keep a discreet silence. "I am in the final stages of scripting the film and hope to finish it by April but I am yet to make up my mind about who would be best suited for the role. It will have to be someone unique," she says.
Vinta is also preoccupied with her documentary, GENDER BENDER, which she is producing for Pujita Chowdhary. "I am looking at a proper theatrical release for the film across all theatres in India. In fact, I want the film to be the take-off point for a whole women's movement," she says. The film discusses the achievements of women who have made their mark in traditionally male-dominated professions.
