For the next film that Anurag Kashyap is all set to direct, the auteur director has selected a new work-method. No actor has been given a script. Instead they’ve all been given a brief outline for their characters. Ronit Roy plays a Bengali teetotaler while Tejaswini Kolhapure plays his alcoholic wife. In fact, the two lead actors are unaware that they’re working with each other. They were just asked to report for the first day of shooting on October 21.

Padmini Kolhapure's sister Tejaswini, who started off her acting career as the leading lady in Anurag Kashyap's debut directorial film Paanch, is returning in the 70mm space with the director’s next film <em>Ugly</em> in which she will play an alcoholic. <em>Paanch</em>, that was about five members of a rock band involved in drugs, was considered a little ahead of its times. And though available online, the critically appreciated film never made it to the silver screen.
