Celebrity astrologer Sundeep Kocchar who has appeared in TV shows like "Bach Ke Rehna" and "Kismat Ke Sitare", is ready to get a taste of acting with his debut project, a Marathi film titled "Bhavishyachi Aishi Taishi".
"I'm very excited about this project. When I was narrated this subject, I fell in love with it and I wanted to do it. I am still learning Marathi and I am playing a very prominent role in the film," Kocchar told IANS.
"I have shot for a few portions, and the rest of the shooting will begin from Aug 18. The film is slated for November release," he added.
"Bhavishyachi Aishi Taishi" is the story about the belief and disbelief in astrology.
Ramesh Talware, who is producing the movie, says Sundeep carries forward his real life astrologer streak in reel as well.
"He has got a dynamic personality and since the script relates well with his real life, we thought he would be the right person for the role (of an astrologer)," said Talware.
The film will be directed by Shirish Rane.
