I am thankful to have done variant roles in my career: Ritwick Chakraborty

Bengali actor Ritwick Chakraborty, who bagged the Best Actor's award for Shabdo, says that he always try to play different roles.

“The character I am playing in a film is very important to me and I always try to play different roles,” he said to Tellychakkar.com.

The actor who played a foley artist in Shabdo, a negative role in Bheetu and a sociopath morgue worker in Nirbaak added, “So far I have managed to play quite a different roles in my film career and I hope to continue this in the future too.”   

The talented actor is usually seen in serious roles and in offbeat films. For a change, he was seen playing a full on romantic role in the recently released social thriller Saheb Bibi Golaam.

On his role in the film, he quipped, “In Saheb Bibi Golaam, I played an out and out romantic role. My character in the film was an irrational lover.”

“Not that I have never played a romantic role. In my first film Pagol Premi, I played a romantic role where songs and dances were there. But this one (Saheb Bibi Golaam) is different. It is a realistic film,” he added.

When quizzed after his first project why he was not seen in films that required him to dance, he replied with a smile, “Such roles came along my way but I was never interested in them. I personally feel that those roles do not suit me.”

“I try to stay away from dance,” he signed off.
