Actress Vidya Balan is excited about reuniting with her "Kahaani" director Sujoy Ghosh and "Paa" co-star Amitabh Bachchan for the upcoming film "Te3n", in which she will be seen as a police official.
"I am playing a cop in the film. It's a special appearance, but I was excited about doing it because it's a fabulous script. I'll get a chance to shoot again in Kolkata with Mr.Bachchan, Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Sujoy," Vidya said on Friday at the launch of Piyush Jha's book "Raakshas India's No. 1 Serial Killer".
While Ghosh is the creative producer of "Te3n", it being directed by Ribhu Dasgupta.
And just like "Kahaani", the upcoming film is being shot in Kolkata.
"This is not 'Kahaani'. Its story is very different and I'm enjoying it. I have been shooting in Kolkata and I actually love shooting there. Many from the team are the same who had worked on 'Kahaani'. It's always fun with Sujoy and there is Mr. Bachchan and Nawaz too," said the actress.
When asked if Kolkata was lucky for her, she said: "I don't know that. When a film is well-made, it automatically becomes lucky. We're just trying to make a good film and right now, we're enjoying a lot while working."
