Mithun to play priest again in 'Chingaari'
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,August 03 2005]
Remember a small movie called 'Classic - Dance of Of Love' that released early 2005 and vanished without a trace? The movie starred ex-superstar Mithun Chakravorty in the role of an 'Acharya' who runs an 'ashram'.
For the outside world, he is a spiritual person who preaches about men staying away from women but from deep within he is a lusty soul himself.
Now get ready for Kalpana Lajmi's 'Chingaari' that sees him playing apparently a similar role. Here he is called Bhagwan Pandit who has two sides to him. One of a spiritual guru whereas the second is that of a man obsessed with visiting prostitutes.
In this movie written by Bhupen Hazarika, Sushmita Sen plays the role of a fiery prostitute called Basanti while Anuj Sawney is a postman who falls in love with her.
While on the movie, some of you may know that the movie was earlier titled 'The Postman And The Prostitute'!
