Press: ‘Shantaram’ Actress Sujaya Dasgupta Discusses “Dream Role” and Working With “Humble” Co-star Charlie Hunnam

In a recent interview with PopCulture.com actress Sujaya Dasgupta who plays Kavita, a passionate and motivated journalist alongside Charlie’s character Lin Ford in AppleTV’s ‘Shantaram’ discussed what her experience was like working with him in what she dubs her “dream role.”

Finally, we asked Dasgupta about acting alongside Hunnam in the show, whom she describes as an “incredible” person. “I was really taken aback by his sense of groundedness,” she said. “He’s so down to earth, really about the work, incredibly professional on set, off set, and a really brilliant, I think leader of this company. You needed someone to look to lead this show. It’s him, and he’s incredible and he’s so humble. I didn’t have any expectations, but that was really lovely to learn about him. It’s such a horrible word, nice, but he’s just a nice guy. I think niceness is underrated, but I think just him. And he’s been working for such a long time, but his sense of humility is outstanding and I love that.”

Dasgupta continued, “And also on a professional level, working with him in scenes, amazing, because you got to play off him. He would offer something new every time. He would care about the scene as much as you and offer different things every take. And you would respond to that. And I love that. As an actor, that’s delicious. That’s what you want when you’re doing screen work.”
