Saturday, 9 June 2018 00:00

Actress Divya Dutta said that she wants to get directed by veteran filmmaker and writer Gulzar.

Divya said, "There are many characters which I wish to play. I have seen all films directed by Gulzar saab and it is my wish that whenever he directs a film, I want to be part of that as I really like his way of filmmaking."

"I really like his 'Mausam' (1975) and 'Aandhi' (1975) so, I would love to do those films and apart from him, there are many directors with whom I haven't worked yet... half a list of directors is still remaining," she added.

Talking about her upcoming projects, Divya said that her 7-8 films are lined up for release.

"There is Nadita Das's 'Manto' and 'Fanney Khan' with Anil Kapoor. I am also doing a romantic film called 'Music Teacher' with Manav Kaul. There is a thriller with Arshad Warsi and Juhi Chawla as well. I am also doing Anubhav Sinha's 'Abhi To Party Shuru Hui Hai' which is a comedy film and there is another film called 'Nastik' with Arjun Rampal," she said.

Divya Dutta was last seen in Abhinay Deo's 'Blackmail'.
