Bollywood hot and Amazing Actress Manisha Koirala is traveling so extensively with golfer boyfriend Chris that she won’t be here on July 11 when her long delayed lavish musical Mehbooba releases. The same day the Bengali and Hindi versions of Rituparno Ghosh’s Khela featuring Manisha in the lead are opening as well. Surprisingly Manisha has not dubbed for either version of Khela not even in Hindi. She has been traveling extensively and we just couldn’t wait any longer Ghosh told IANS. Manisha is the most easygoing obedient disciplined and hassle free actress I have worked with. Believe me I have worked with the most temperamental Bengali actresses in the world. I had heard Manisha is difficult. Not true at all. She just surrendered to my vision. Ajay Devgan used to tell me Manisha is like a man on the sets. She gets ready for a shot in three minutes. I ha’ve worked with actresses who have failed to get ready even after three hours of makeup Ghosh added. Ghosh is in fact planning another film with Manisha. She is so lovely and I know exactly what I want to do with her in my next film. In Khela she has a very interesting role as the neglected wife of a self-centred actor played by Prosenjeet. Khela is Ritu’s 1^st film with a child at the centre of the story. It’s about a film unit that wants a particular child for a role. When the parents refuse the boy gets in touch with the film’s hero and suggests they kidnap him because he wants to do the film. The hero Prosenjeet and the film’s art director Raima Sen do just that. Khela will be Ghosh’s first Hindi-Bengali bilingual and but he has another one Sunglass coming up very soon. That was like making two different films because the male lead in Hindi is R. Madhavan and in Bengali it is Tota Roy-Chowdhary.
