Peeya Rai Chowdhury Munshi has replaced Riya Sen in the film Bong Connection. The director Joy had issues with Riya on her dates that she had allotted for the film. The film also stars Raima Sen and Peeya's husband Shayan Munshi. Peeya is now taking Bengali lessons from her husband to play it perfect in the Bong Connection.
Peeya happened to be dropping by the sets often to visit her hubby. After all it's only been two months since they got married. The director around the same time found issues with Riya. He then offered her to play Riya's part, which she accepted.
Unfortunately she will not share the screen with her hubby. She will in a week or two leave for her 30 days schedule to the US. She will join Joy who is already there. Shayan's part is almost completed in Kolkata. Its Peeya's turn now. Her character in Bong Connection is very similar in shades with her character in Bride and Prejudice.
She has perennially got offers similar to that role. She has splendid performances in Vaastu Shastra, My brother Nikhil, Chupke Se and so on. The film is 25% in Bengali and 75% in English. It is being produced under the Moxie India banner.
