The Bangla beauty is pampered and mollycoddled while shooting for the Bengali movie ‘Naukadubi’ under the direction of Rituparno Ghosh. It is said that Rituparno looks upon her like his own daughter and sees to it that she is taken care of well during the shoots. Riya is definitely getting the best of everything, movie, a good director and all the pampering.
Raima who is also in the movie enacts a similar role as sis Riya, that of a wife who is going through a difficult marriage. The movie is based on a Rabindranath Tagore’s novel by the same name and the shoot is all in Shantinektan.
It would be an interesting movie especially with both sisters acting in it, though the news is that do not get to be together in any of the scenes. Jishnu, who was seen last in The Last Lear has been cast opposite Riya.
