Bagha Beach to be released commercially

IFFI-honored 'Bagha Beach', the Konkonese film having been screened in the 'Indian Panorama' section, will now be commercially released after National Award cap, to be seen by the general public, its actor Paoli Dam says.
'Tha Hate Story' star believes coming out of the comfort zone becomes important for any actor and she had to exert herself in 'Bagha Beach'.
"I really lived those moments when we shot real time on the beach in Goa, having seen the bead sellers frequenting the place and enacting one on screen," Paoli, who had also starred in 'Ankur Arora Murder Case' told PTI.

"For me each single film is a voyage, where one must force herself out of her familiar place, the so-called comfort zone to face the unknown. That brings out the best," Paoli said.
"I enjoy acting that is my passion, my part of existence," Paoli said.
The 'Kalbela' actor, which brought her to stardom, said the past several months were one of the most satisfying phases for her, with 'Parapar', IFFI-screened 'Ajana Batas', as well as Moinak Bhowmik's 'Family Album', and Sudeshna Guha-Abhijit Roy's 'Hercules', all lined up for release.

"Hercules is a political film, it is a realistic film, it is a black comedy and I thoroughly enjoyed," Paoli said about the film which talks about the tolerance level of any citizen in this society where Saswata Chatterjee plays 'Buffalo', a para don.

Asked about her beauty and fitness mantra during outdoors in the sweltering heat, Paoli said, "I use minimal make-up, wear light costumes and have adequate 'Daber Jal' (green coconut water) intakes in between."
Recalling how elegant she felt in a gorgeous 'dhakai' saree walking red carpet as an Indian actor at Cannes 2012, Paoli said "I wore the robes designed by friend Sayantan Sarkar who also adorned me in this year's prestigious 'Lakme Fashion Week.'
On her style 'mantra', she said "I like wearing cotton during this time of the year, off white in day time and red orange with shades at evening."

"A kurti with jeans, is also an option, it can be salwar or saree for me or any western outfit you wear," she said.
Paoli walked the ramp attired in robes of friend international designer Debarun Mukherjee in a recent show draped in brightly colored cotton robes.
