Actress Masumeh Makhija’s career hasn’t fared well in Bollywood since her debut in Chupke Se, but she has landed international film roles and is happy flaunting them.
She appeared in a German film, and is ready to star in a yet-to-be titled Italian venture.?
“My films are not crossovers but genuine European films,” Masumeh told IANS. “I have already done a German film with Veit Helmer titled Gate to Heaven that even got pulled up for the European Awards. Now I’ll be doing an Italian film with Matteo Morazzo. The shooting will start next year.”
?She refused to reveal any further details on her international project as “the deal is still in talks.”?
Gate to Heaven was a bit tough for Masumeh because she had to speak German.
“Speaking German was really difficult for me. However, I speak Spanish so I guess Italian will be easier.”?
In 2004, Masumeh debuted with Chupke Se. It bombed at the box office. Since then she has been seen in films like Maqbool as Pankaj Kapur’s daughter, Padmashree Laloo Prasad Yadav, Woh Lamhe and Dus Kahaniyaan.?Her upcoming Bollywood project is Shona Urvashi’s Saas, Bahu Aur Sensex, opening Sept. 12. It’s Hollywood studio Warner Bros.’s first Indian venture.?
