Satyajeet Dubey, in an exclusive conversation with Indiatoday.in, spoke about his upcoming web show Bestseller. It streams from February 18 on Amazon Prime Video.
Satyajeet Dubey began his career with Always Kabhi Kabhi and ever since, there has been no looking back for him. Having started his career with Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies film, Satyajeet Dubey went on to do an array of films and TV shows, including the recently released Mumbai Diaries 26/11.
The actor will next be seen in Bestseller, all set to release tomorrow, February 18. Ahead of his next show's release, Satyajeet Dubey spoke exclusively to IndiaToday.in about Bestseller, his upcoming projects and more. Directed by Mukul Abhyankar and produced by Siddharth Malhotra, Bestseller is a dark, psychological thriller.
Satyajeet Dubey worked with Mithun Chakraborty, Arjan Bajwa, Shruti Haasan, Gauahar Khan and Sonalee Kulkarni in Bestseller. Speaking about working with Mithun Chakraborty, who is fondly known as Mithun Da, Satyajeet revealed that he had to let go of his fanboy feelings to work alongside the legend.
Satyajeet reveals, "Aree Mithun Da is an absolute delight to work with. I remember my very first scene was with him. Yaar ye hota haina ki aap legends k sath kaam karte ho toh you have to abandon that whole fanboy thing, because now you are on the same pedestal, right. You are working together, and you need to be an actor first and a fanboy later. We had a great working equation."
On working with Shruti Hassan in Bestseller, Satyajeet revealed that he did not get to interact with her a lot before they began shooting, but that did not affect their equation one bit.
