Banita Sandhu Is Done With Bollywood For Now

 The  very lovely Banita Sandhu who plays  the comatose  heroine in Shoojit Sircar’s  October  is  not going to seen in  any other Bollywood film for some time.

The girl from Wales has  gone back to London to finish her studies.

Chatting on whatsapp from  London Banita says, “October is so much more than a film for me. It’s an experience. It’s a really a slice-of-life cinema.I knew from the start that this was a special project, and I’m so happy to have been a  part of it.It’s much more than a  film for me.”

Banita is all praise for  the film’s  director and  writer. “Juhi’s writing  is  poetry  on  celluloid. She and (director) Shoojit Sir make magic together.It is very rare  to find artistes  like Shoojit Sir and  Juhi to work with.”

Banita whose parents  are  second-generation Asian Indians—Banita’s paternal  and  maternal grandparents migrated from Indian to Britain and  her parents are Britain-born—is  focusing on finishing her  studies at King’s College in  London. “I am  perfectionist, so I want to get top grades. My  graduation exam are in mid-May. After that I  am  finally done. It’s  the last push now so I can’t slacken.”

She would love to return to acting after her exams. “I can’t wait to get my  final course done so  I can work (in films)again.The film set  is  home  for me.So yeah, if I get good films I’d consider them for sure. But for me, quality  is  very  important”
