"It hurt me so badly": Rahul Bose recalls not being given chair on set of his first film
In a conversation with ANI, he shared, 'This was on my first film. I was playing the lead. And no, I won't mention the film and I won't mention anybody else. That's not the point of this story. And I... never got a chair to sit on. The producer's mother, the producer's father, the other people would come in, and they would all get chairs. And it was my first movie, and I had to keep asking for a chair. And it was so awkward that finally I stopped. . So I used to sit on parapets, I used to sit on stones...'
He continued, 'Agar bahar shoot ho raha hai to mai vahan jaakar baithta tha..itminaan se..pretending to be very sporting..like don't worry about it I am fine..and indoors par hum kaam karte the to vahan set par hi chair mil jaata tha and I never forget it..It hit me so hard, it hurt me so badly.'
The ace star recalled how he got the chair in Mumbai in a restaurant, 'After that... Immediately... uske baad hum fauran Bambai vaapas aaye (We came back to Mumbai)... after 3-4 days there used to be a restaurant...Moshe's jo Cuffe Parade mein hua karta tha..vahan unke restaurant ki kursiya thi bahut sundar thi (The chairs of their restaurant were very beautiful) jaise vo director ka chair hota hai the collapsible one, canvas one. Except, quality was good there..to I said in kursiyun ko aapne kahan se kharida tha to unhone kaha fala fala jagah se khareeda to I straight away went there And I asked for one of those chairs. In those days, it cost 10,000 rupees. I'm talking about 32 years ago.'
Bose shared, 'I said I want this chair... till today, wherever I go, the chair goes with me. And it's been in seven films. Directors have used it. '
The 'Pyaar Ke Side Effects' actor recalled how director Aparna Sen calls him 'Brando', saying ' And Aparna Sen calls me Brando, that's another story. Not about my cinematic, my prowess as an actor. She would always sit on it to tease me, which is fine. . But that's, I think the scars that you bear, if you can do something positive, something non-confrontational, something peaceable, and yet something forward, it takes your life forward, that's the best solution...till today, I always say, don't sweat the small stuff. Wait. It will come.'

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], July 29 (ANI): Rajesh Tailang and Sheeba Chadha starrer 'Bakaiti' is ready to offer yet another slice of family drama. The trailer for the upcoming web series has been released, offering a glimpse into the antics of the Kataria family in Old Ghaziabad. Actors Rajesh Tailang and Sheeba Chadha are seen in the lead roles as a married couple. The trailer shows how the middle-class family is forced to rent out a room for extra money after they suffer a major financial crunch, resulting in a series of chaos in the household. It also promises a mix of laughter, satire, emotions, and eventful incidents from the family's daily lives that come across as familiar as well as heartwarming. Ahead of the show's OTT release, the lead actors opened up about their respective characters, the family story, and much more. "I think such things happen in every family. Everyone has their own wishes, and they often fight among themselves. There are also families where people believe in more talking and not listening. So, the Kataria family is one such example," Tailang told ANI. Sheeba Chadha, who features as Mrs Kataria, spoke about the bittersweet relationship between her on-screen father and her husband, as shown in the trailer. "You know how father-daughter relationships are like. No matter how good their sons-in-law are, they always have a thing. So, it's coming from there," she explained. The actress also shared an old anecdote when she was carried away by emotions during a shoot. "I once did a series several years back. We went to an orphanage where the kids sang the song 'Humko Mann Ki Shakti Dena.' I don't know what happened to me, I couldn't control crying. I remember they had to stop the shooting for sometime. Just the place, the children, the innocence, the feelings - it was very overwhelming for me," she added. On the other hand, Rajesh Tailang teased that viewers will find the show "familiar and relatable." "We should take life with a pinch of salt. This is what our series is about. You cannot be serious about everything. Problems will always come, and they eventually pass with time," he said.

Rajesh Tailang and Sheeba Chadha, who previously worked together on Prime Video's 'Mirzapur', said that their characters are completely different in the upcoming show. "There is a lot of difference in our Mirzapur characters. The dynamics are different, the worlds are different," they shared. The official synopsis for 'Bakaiti' states, "Somewhere in Old Ghaziabad, the Kataria family, facing an acute financial crunch, decides to rent out one of the rooms. Will this bring the family closer, or will it lead to more chaos?" The show will be released on ZEE5 on Friday, August 1. (ANI)
