Sheeba Chadha on unreleased film with Irrfan Khan
In a new interview with Siddharth Kannan, Sheeba Chadha was asked about Irrfan Khan. Talking about him, the actress revealed that she had done a film with him but it is unreleased.
Sheeba added that she is trying to push the film because it's sitting with JioHotstar now. She revealed that earlier it was with UTV, then it went to Disney, and Disney is now sitting with JioHotstar. "I have done quite a bit of work with JioHotstar recently, so we are trying to see if we can somehow get it to come out," she said.
She also added, "It is 1 1-hour film by itself, which is a part of an episodic, which is start to finish a thriller. So we shot that 100 years ago (humorously) back in Goa. It was Irrfan and I, largely directed by Shivam Nair, and just lovely."
Meanwhile, when the film releases on JioHotstar, it will be available on OTTplay Premium as well.
