The Glam Bug: Shanta, how many projects you are doing now?

Shanta Paul: I am doing Ramp shows National & Internationally, Brand shoots, commercial ad shoots, telefilms. And with that, I have now one Telegu film & one Bengali film in Kolkata in hand. Basically, I’m from Bangladesh, but India is too close to me, even in both parts of Bengal I never can feel any differences. I received love & blessings from the people from Dhaka as well as from the people of Kolkata too…they are all my own.

The GlamBug: So you are doing a film in Kolkata Tollywood? Can you please tell us some more about your Tollywood venture?

Shanta Paul: Sorry, I can not share that. But I can tell you that, the great actor Ankush Hazra will be playing the lead hero role & I will play the lead heroine role in the film.

The Glam Bug: Ok, here goes your Bengali film, what about the Telegu film? How did you get the opportunity?

Shanta Paul: As I said already, in the year 2019, I have participated in the “Miss Asia Global” competition, however, I managed to get placed in the Top 5 of the competition & earned the “Miss Beautiful Eyes” title. In that time I met many South Indian Directors & Producers. Recently well-known Telegu film Director Vishwanath Rao contacted me and offers a lead heroine role in his film named ‘Ya Ra La Va’. I liked the story and say yes to his offer. If all goes well you can see me as the lead heroine in the following film. That’s the story.

The GlamBug: Which type of film it is, means is it a love story or real-life story or thriller?

Shanta Paul: The film script is full of suspense, it is a thriller story based movie. and my character name is Ananya, the story revolves around the character Ananya. I was a little afraid at first to accept the character, but all the people of the production seems to be very supportive, so I said yes to the film.

The GlamBug: We have listened that, one of well known Tollywood Director was contacted you and offered a nasty proposal? Is it true?

Shanta Paul: Yes, that really happened with me. Bengali Director Rajib Biswas, who directed blockbuster films like, ‘Raj Rani Raji, ‘Paglu’, ‘Bindaas’,’ Nakab’ & many more, contact me via the social platform. I never met him, so he said to do Google about him. And then I started chatting. He said that for one lead heroine role he chooses me. I say ok fine, then send me the scripts, but he then offered some wired thing. He gave me a condition to spend a night with him to ensure the opportunity. I refused. He also asked for my personal images too. I directly refused him. Even I have shared my screenshots with media too because I don’t like hide & seek play.

The GlamBug: You love challenges. Who influenced you now to accept the challenge like doing a film of an unknown like Telegu?

Shanta Paul: Yes I love to take new challenges. I think as a performing artist,I shouldn’t keep any boundaries around me. Telegu language is not the bar actually. I am doing modeling for the past 7 years I have participated in National & International beauty competitions and placed me on the top all the time. And in Bangladesh I have done fashion shoots, commercial ad shoots, ramp shows, telefilms & TV hosting, So I think I can use all the experiences at the time of the shooting. And I am not the first one who do Telegu films, Before me, Meghla Mukta from Bangladesh also worked in Telegu films. I am focusing on my performance now. I hope I will be able to accomplish my task properly.

The Glam’Bug: How has stardom changed you?

Shanta Paul: Fame or so called stardom has transformed me without a doubt, but not in the way most people believe. I am a simple girl that I was 7 years back when the world didn’t have any acquaintance with me. In any case, I do crave privacy and alone time now. So basically, fame hasn’t transformed me – it has changed my conditions, my lifestyle.

The Glam’Bug: What about your family support?

Shanta Paul: In Bangladesh, people have an idea that the modeling industry is full of sins. But my family is always with me, when I decide to take my path to this industry, they support me. It’s God’s blessing to have her as mother and him as a father. They are my mentor till today. They are always holding me and supporting me from behind. You can say they are my power generator.
