Chitrangda Singh has been quite a success after Yeh Saali Zindagi. I have seen bits & pieces of this movie. It’s not possible to see the entire movie in one go. Irfan Khan is the only good thing about it. Chitrangda Singh cannot even give expressions when a person is dying. She acts in the same way in all her movies. No doubt she’s attractive & she can act a bit more than Katrina Kaif & Sonam Kapoor & maybe that is what makes her a success & she deserves it, cause she has been around for too long. Anyway, this woman will be seen with Arjan Rampal in this yet untitled film that is based on the issue of sexual exploitation at workplace.

Confirms Chitrangda who is all set to kick start the shooting of this film in May this year, "Yes, this one will be an altogether different film for me in terms of theme and setting. After Yeh Saali Zindagi, we want to now shift gears and get into a different territory altogether."

You know people were already talking that Chitrangda was Sudhir Mishra’s muse & now she will be working with him for the 3^rd time.

However, she says with a smile. "Somehow Sudhir writes some amazing female characters for his films", she says, "He has a room full of scripts and when this film about sexual exploitation at workplace came my way, I was quite sure that I wanted to do it."

In the past too, they have made movies on this theme but without any success. Hello Darling was presented as a comedy but it failed badly. Another film which dealt with this issue seriously was Sheesha (1986) but people do not even remember it. But when you have Arjun Rampal, I guess the situation would be different.

"Well, we would ensure that this film indeed turns out to be pretty memorable", smiles Chitrangda.

I believe Arjun Rampal will take care of that just how Irfan Khan did in Yeh Saali Zindagi. Chitrangda doesn't need to worry at all.

Chitrangda Singh seems to be hitting all the right notes with her latest release 'Yeh Saali Zindagi.’ However, the media has only 1 question for her mentor Sudhir Mishra & quite frankly, we all are getting quite tired. So what if he continues to launch & re-launch her! He also worked with Soha Ali twice. Plus Chitrangda Singh is good at her work.

Irrfan is said to have shared a scintillating chemistry with his leading lady in this dramatic love tale.

Says a source, "Chitrangda is pretty open when it comes to shedding her inhibitions as long as the scenes are shot aesthetically. After all the woman did have closet fun (pun intended) with Sharman Joshi in 'Sorry Bhai'. Now when Sharman's character could have got lucky there, why can't Irrfan in 'Yeh Saali Zindagi'?"

Wow! That’s a very cheap mentality! I think both Irrfan Khan & Chitrangda are 2 serious actors. And from where does the fun part come in? It might be fun for the audience or the media that loves to talk about steamy scenes that are never that steamy. And that scene with Sharman Joshi was just okay, & believe me it’s not a very memorable scene. You forget it once it’s over.

I think Shabana Azmi was the funnies thing in Sorry Bhai. But what a mom to suggest the idea of live in relationship to her child! Who wouldn’t love to have that sort of a mom!

Sudhir Mishra is busy promoting his film Yeh Saali Zindagi these days. Whenever anybody asks him if Chitrangada is his her favorite actress, which is why she is repeatedly casted in his films, he knows very well how to counter question the journalists and reporters. 

He gave back a fiery response "Sanjay Bhansali loves to work with Aishwarya, Karan Johar loves to work with SRK and Vishal Bharadwaj has done two films with Priyanka. Why do you have to question me regarding Chitrangada?"

Before Yeh Saali Zindagi, Sudhir gave Chitrangada a golden opportunity to work in one of her finest and only recognized performances in Hazaron Khwaishein Aisi. Since then we didn't see a lot of Chitrangada as she wasn't given any good roles despite her being a talented actress.

Chitrangada Singh

Sudhir Mishra with Chitrangada Singh

Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra is getting all upset and angry after being probed and accused at every gathering, occasion and magazine review that Chitrangada Singh is nothing but his muse. He got pissed and this is what he has to say:

"I don't like these words. My name is not Maqbool Fida Husain. My name is Sudhir Mishra and I am a film director (not a painter who takes inspirations from a muse). I work with actors whom I am comfortable with and whom I really respect," Mishra, who had introduced the actress with 'Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi', said.

"And Chitrangada is a wonderful and outstanding actress. Whenever there is a part for her, I'll always cast her. She has added a lot to my films 'Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi' and 'Yeh Saali Zindagi'."

Well it is quite fair of him to say so...and we certainly agree there is but only one M.F. Husain whose muse keeps changing every now and then from Madhuri Dixit to Amrita Rao and now perhaps to Anushka Sharma. No no, Sudhir Mishra can't possibly fall in such a category. He should continue making good films and shouldn't bother about whatever people say. We don't mind watching the talented Chitrangada anyway. We don't get to see much of her so it is pretty ok for us viewers.
