I have heard a lot about Nithiin, says Mishti Chakraborty

Not too long ago, Mishti (Indrani) Chakraborty made her Bollywood debut with showman Subhash Ghai���s film Kaanchi. And now, the pretty girl is all set to charm Tollywood. Paired opposite lover boy Nithiin, the Bengali beauty will debut with director Karunakaran���s untitled next.
The pretty actress who���s just one film old, is quite gung-ho about her Telugu debut.���It���s a romantic entertainer with a thriller element in it. When the script was narrated to me, I instantly gave my nod because I really liked it. Also, I have heard a lot about my co-star Nithiin. So, I���m pretty excited to work with him. We���re set to start the shooting next month,��� she says.Ask her if she would be learning Telugu for the film, and pat comes the reply, ���Definitely. Right now, I don���t know if my voice would be dubbed by somebody else, but I would love to learn the language to get my dialogues and lip sync perfect.���
Born and brought up in Kolkata, Mishti used to be n English teacher till she got into the glamour world. ���Since the very beginning, I have been a very independent person and would hesitate to depend on my parents for money. When I was in Class X, I started my own coaching classes and used to teach English to school kids at our home,��� recalls Mishti, adding, ���One of my students was the daughter of documentary filmmaker Shobha Mitra. And through her, Shobha contacted me and asked if I would be interested in acting in one of her documentary films. So, that���s how my acting career began, although I had never planned to become an actress.���
Her spontaneous nature and instinctive decision-making landed her Subhash Ghai���s film. ���Although Kaanchi is my debut film, I finished shooting for Rupali Guha���s Bengali movie Porichoy first. The movie is yet to release. Later, the makers of Porichoy were in talks with Subhash sir and recommended my name. That���s how I landed the film,��� reveals Mishti.
Subhash Ghai is known to rename the female leads of his films with ���M��� and there have been reports that he did the same for ���Mishti���. Denying the reports, she says, ���Although my original name is Indrani, Mishti has been my nickname since childhood.The only fact is,when he came to know about both my names, he asked me which one I would like to retain and I had said ���Mishti���. Everybody calls and knows me as Mishti, whereas Indrani is my given name and hardly anybody would call me by that name.���
The pretty actress however, desires to be in the film industry for the long run and wants to take it easy. ���I���m new to the industry, so I���m very confused. Though it���s an advantage for me that I made my debut under the direction of Subhash sir, I want to take things easy and go slow right now. I���d love to be part of more Telugu films if something good is offered in future. But Bollywood will always be my focus. I���ve two more films with Subhash sir and under his mentorship, I���ll definitely explore and learn more,��� she signs off.
