Sushant S Rajput - Byomkesh Bakshi- In theaters now - Go see it :) - Page 14

Is Sushant Singh Rajput Dibakar Banerjee's new blue eyed boy?

Dibakar was all praises for the young actor on the last day of their film's shoot

Sushant Singh Rajput who is playing the lead in Dibakar Banerjee's Detective Byomkesh Bakshi seems to have impressed his director and how? On the last day ofDetective Byomkesh Bakshi's shoot, Dibakar who is known for not repeating actors in his films told the reporters, "Sushant is a very matured and a talented actor. For this character I need someone who is young but a matured and an expert actor. Sushant has these qualities and hence he fit the role perfectly."

The Shanghai director further added, "Byomkesh's character in my film is very young and inexperienced, similarly, Sushant is also very young but very intelligent. These similarities between the character and the actor worked big time for me."

With so many praises hurling his way we wonder if the Kai Po Che actor has now become the new poster boy for Dibakar. Sushant who has already signed big films like Aamir Khans P.K. with Rajkumar Hirani and Shekhar Kapur's Paani with Emma Watson and John Trovoltais already on a high and with so many praises from an acclaimed director is just another feather on Sushant's cap. Bollywoodlifers, don't be surprised if you soon hear an announcement of another film where Dibakar will be seen calling the shots for this Shuddh Desi Romance actor.

Dibakar Banerjee: Detective Byomkesh Bakshi is my most expensive film by far!
