Shantanu Maheshwari is looking forward to spending Christmas in his hometown Kolkata after five years. The popular actor shares his plans with mid-day.com.

How did the Kolkata trip happen and how does it feel to return home after five years?
I am in Kolkata for a work trip, and there is nothing better than being in the city for work as it’s my hometown. Kolkata is beautiful, so I love being a part of projects which get to be filmed here, because the culture and heritage of Kolkata is so rich and there is much to explore here that the shooting process also becomes a very memorable one. A lot of aspects of the city have changed for the better of course, while at the same time a lot still remains the same, which has got me so nostalgic about while roaming the streets and visiting old and new spots to shoot. So yes coming back home is always a good feeling, and when it’s for work, it makes me even happier!
