Swastika Mukherjee on Sushant Singh Rajput: From ‘Detective Byomkesh Bakshy’ to ‘Dil Bechara’, I saw a way more confidant man

Swastika Mukherjee, who played Mrs Basu (Sanjana Sanghi’s on-screen mother) in ‘Dil Bechara’, also worked with Sushant Singh Rajput in ‘Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!’ in 2015. Swastika and Sushant used to share a good camaraderie. It was not easy for Swastika to watch ‘Dil Bechara’. She had mixed emotions.

From working in ‘Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!’ and now ‘Dil Bechara’, Swastika didn’t see much change in Sushant rather than he becoming more confident and more energetic.

Sharing more about it, Swastika said, “He looked happy and calm about the fact that he has finally arrived in Bollywood. When I worked with him in ‘Byomkesh Bakshy’, that was his third film, and when I worked with him ‘Dil Bechara’, he has done way more films and he was a Bollywood superstar now. He wasn’t one and was trying to get there when I worked with him in ‘Byomkesh Bakshy’. He was still referred to as ‘Pavitra Rishta’ boy. He had to break all that and work hard and do superb films. I saw a way more confidant man. I can’t say he was a completely changed man and anything like that. He was talking about all the films he was doing. He was very excited about all his films and ‘Chhichhore’ was about to come and he was very happy about it. Personally I don’t think he was a changed human being altogether.”
