I don't look like a village girl, so not in Gangs Of Wasseypur: Kalki Koechlin

I don't look like a village girl, so not in Gangs Of Wasseypur: Kalki Koechlin

Highlights

  • Kalki Koechlin, who has worked in her husband Anurag Kashyap's directorial ventures, is not part of Gangs Of Wasseypur because, she says, she doesn't fit into village belle's character.
  • Asked why she wasn't a part of the cast of Jharkhand-based Gangs Of Wasseypur, Kalki said: "I don't look like a Bihari gaon ki ladki (a village girl from Bihar) from any angle. So that's simply why."
  • She worked in Kashyap's directorial venture Dev D and That Girl In Yellow Boots.
  • But at the same time, Kalki feels she is a spoilt actress, given the gamut of directors she gets to work with.
  • "I am very comfortable working with Dibakar (Banerjee), Zoya (Akhtar), Ayan (Mukerji) and Kannan (Iyer) sir. I am actually very spoilt. I get to work with all my favourite directors," Kalki said.
  • The actress, who recently returned from the 65th Cannes International Film Festival, where her husband's two-part series Gangs Of Wasseypur was showcased, was in the capital for a press conference for the forthcoming film Shanghai.
