Bengali cinema's superstar?Prosenjit Chatterjee's next hindi project is?'Jubilee'. The Vikramaditya Motwane-directed original series will see him play Srikant Roy, the powerful owner of Roy Talkies.?

In an interview with Indian Express, the actor spoke about why he never pursued a career in Bollywood.?“I think all regional actors… it’s not like we come to Mumbai and get a lot of work. I last worked in Shanghai, which was a long time now,” he shared, adding that there was always a lack of opportunities for them.

“Right now, there is a lot of talent and so many doors have opened. New platforms have come up and everyone is getting a lot of exposure. Language is not an issue anymore. It’s a great time for the younger generation. With this show too, we are trying to do something very unique,” Prosenjit added.

Also, a lot of Bengali actors have earlier raised concern over how they get stereotyped in typical roles, mouthing dialogues like ‘aami tomake bhalo bashi’. Dismissing the same, Chatterjee said that actors like?Mithun Chakraborty?and even his father Biswajit Chatterjee have managed to break out and do all kinds of roles in Hindi films. “Times have changed, definitely. Bengali actors have done so much more,” he added.

In?Jubilee, Prosenjit’s character discovers an actor in his assistant Binod Das and shapes his career to become a star.?Jubilee also stars?Aparshakti Khurana, Siddhant Gupta, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Aditi Rao Hydari. The first part, comprising of five episodes will drop on April 7 on Amazon Prime Video, followed by another five, next week.
