Rohit Bose Roy, who shot to fame with hit shows like ‘Swabhimaan’ and ‘Des Mein Niklla Hoga Chand’ is a well-known face on television and Hindi cinema. The actor is currently awaiting the release of his first international film, `IRaH`, directed by Sam Bhattacharjee. Roy has now revealed to Mid-day.com that he has decided to take a break from acting and will be focusing his entire energy on directing his first feature film- a multi-starrer love story. Roy, who believes is an actor by accident had always wanted to be a director and trusts now is the time to take charge behind the camera to narrate a beautiful love story for the big screen.
“I`m taking a break from acting now completely. I will finish the film ‘Control’ with Jayantilal Gada and a show with Ruchi Narain and then I take a complete break from acting because my script is ready finally. I`ve been working on this for quite a long time. It`s based on a book I`d read about four or five years back. I completed the first draft of the script in the first lockdown. It took me just four or five days to write the entire script, but it`s taken me two years to finish it. It`s something that I am going to be directing in 2023. And I think unless I take a break from acting. I`ll never be able to do that," he shared.
