Ravi Kissen high on Cocaine sans Roy

Idle talk

Says Kissen, "Rahul is one of the few people I am in touch with from Bigg Boss. We meet often, so when I broached the subject of Cocaine he told me that he was looking at acting options at this juncture.

Hence, I had to find another director. In fact, Shantanu was recommended to me by Rahul, as he had directed him earlier."

London-based Amit Chadha, who is Kissen's friend, is producing Cocaine. "The film will be shot in London and we are looking at the possibility of having Konkona Sensharma in the cast. She fits the character perfectly."

When asked about his no- show in Cocaine, Roy says, "We spoke about a lot of things while on Bigg Boss. Who knew where we would be in the next few weeks and how long we would survive there?

As Ravi was into Bhojpuri films, he mentioned a story he was interested in making into a Hindi film. As I have always evinced a keen desire to direct, I was appointed the said film's director. But it was all just idle talk."
