Rahul Bose is all geared to wield the megaphone once again. Everybody Says I'm Fine marked the actor's debut as a director. Bose's second directorial venture is based on Mohsin Hamid's Moth Smoke. Rahul has already bought the rights to convert the book into a film.
Rahul Bose plans to hit the floor with Moth Smoke in the beginning of next year. Rahul clears the air that bogged down with multiple film commitments he was compelled to push his directorial project to next year.
"That's not true," the actor says. "The story of Moth Smoke requires me to shoot in Delhi. I wanted to start my film by this year end. But I realized that Delhi is usually very foggy during November-December and thus had to push my plans. I will now start shooting only in the beginning of next year."
The story of Moth Smoke requires Rahul to shoot extensively in Lahore too. The actor says that he will try his best to acquire required permission to shoot in our neighboring country.
"Shooting across the border is something I am looking forward to! But if I don't get permission then I will have to start looking for other options," Rahul says.
Rahul chooses to be tightlipped about the lead too. Had he approached anybody or was he going to play the central character himself?
"I am keeping my options open for that too! It is too early to say anything though I did make a brief appearance in Everybody Says I'm Fine."
Rahul also denies having approached Sushmita Sen for the female lead in the film. "It is not true," he says.
