Aniruddha Roy casts actors Dev and Srabanti for next

Acclaimed filmmaker Aniruddha Roy has cast stars of commercial films, Dev and Srabanti Chatterjee, in his next project.
The filmmaker said he was not troubled by the status of Dev and Srabanti, who are the hit pair of the Bengali commercial film circuit, for his film based on a Samaresh Mazumdar story.
"I have a very different plan for the stars. Their stardom hardly matters to me. Dev has a certain innocence and a boyish look which appeals to my judgement," Roy, maker of National Award-winning film 'Antoheen' and 'Anuronan', told PTI.
He cited Srabanti, who did an intense and realistic portrayal of a young and carefree girl in 'Goynar Baksho' by Aparna Sen.

"Srabanti has proved her mettle in 'Goynar Baksho'. She has shown what she is capable of in another movie 'Kanamachhi' too," Aniruddha said.
Dev said that after acting in off-beat 'Chander Pahar', this was his second such film.
Srabanti said, "Yes, I have been approached by Aniruddha, but I can't reveal anything more. I like his way of handling relationships. I am more than excited."
Shooting of the film will begin in July.
