Call for actors
A major production house is looking for actors which they have sent to PFC. Requirements are listed with character descriptions:
01) Hero(Vivek)- Good looking strapping young lad around 24-28 years of age. Boy-next-door looks preferably. An air of confidence, a strong voice(conviction) and the ability to dance. Musn’t be stiff and should have natural aura. The role is that of a young boy who has his own unique yet simple way of looking at life. His clarity and his conviction must shine through.
02) Heroine(Preeti)- Around 20-24. Demure, appealing and pleasant. Must have natural charm, instantly lovable. The role is that of a young lady who has innate goodness and is very likable. She must exude individuality and also the simmering joy of being swept in love.
03) Villain(Prakash)- Good looking, well built and the same age as the hero. Must possess attitude and dynamic body language. Must also be versatile enough to tackle different emotions and swing them either way. The role requires him to be a suave bad-ass. He is physically appealing but off-putting otherwise. Must be cocky and arrogant.
04) Supporting Actress(Gauri)- Around 22 years, must be strong in displaying dramatic emotions. The role demands a lot emotionally, and should be able to match up to that. Simple yet beautiful.
05) Others-
A) Preeti’s father(Singhania)- Around 50. Portly fellow, mostly irritated but inherently good-natured. Must have elegance.
B) Preeti’s uncle(Chacha)- Around 40-45. Similar physicality. The role requires him to be a drunkard and must thus possess an ability to create comedy with body language.
C) Gauri’s father(Mishra)- Around 50. Simple man with simple ways. Hails from a rural village. Says it as he sees it.
D) Gauri’s brother(Amar)- Around 26. Straightforward and humble.
E) Amar’s help(DLT)- Around 30-35. Sharp-witted and blunt, must have a natural flair for biting humour. Timing is essential.
F) Amar’s friends(Sunil & Dipen)- The former can be anyone, but the latter must be a Bengali fluent with the Bengali diction. Both must be in the same age-bracket as Amar and Vivek and look a part of the group.
G) Preeti’s friend(Priya)- Around 24. Stylish, with a zest for life. ‘Bindaas’ is the keyword.
H) Singhania’s employee(Khaatkar)- Around 35-40. His is a seperate comedy track and must thus be able to arrest the audience with his flair for humour. Must be comforatble with both verbal and physical comedy.
I) Three women(Preeti’s mom, her aunt and Gauri’s mom)- All three should be around 5 years younger to their husbands. Preeti’s mum will be wise and graceful, her aunt fed-up with her drunk husband and Gauri’s mum a simple villager.

Dear Publisher,
myself Indranil Kashyap. I am an actor. I have acted in many short films and written,produced, edited and directed a short feature of 40 minutes.
I am an actor and I dont like to get into brackets so I think the band of jury would be better to cast me for any particular role.
I wish to act in the production.
Sincerely,
Indranil Kashyap.
