Release of Film Boondi Raita Gets Delayed | Himansh Kohli Opens Up on Same
Talking about the delay of his film, Boondi Raita, the actor says, “There are times when you are working and there are times when you don’t work at all. There are times when you get great opportunities in life and then the pandemic ruins it. For me, that opportunity was getting back into films because they have always been my priority. I started shooting for a film last year, when it got pushed and now again this year.”
Kohli says that the delay with the shooting schedule has forced him to push the stop button on further work commitments. “I am suffering. My film got delayed twice in the last year. So I can’t even take up new work. I have committed my dates to finish this shoot first. As a result, I have to leave other projects that are coming my way,” he explains.
The actor, who is currently in Delhi with his family as a result of stalling of shoots, shares that he was very keen to start the shoot this year at least and had hoped that it would happen. “But at a time like this, you cannot even ask for that to happen. It is not possible to shoot a film right now. It has to be a 45-day-long schedule with a minimum of 200 people.” Himansh said, “It is an unachievable task. No producer or director wants to put anyone’s life at risk on the set,” Kohli points out.
The 31-year-old actor adds that he is trying his level best to keep the entire team of the film motivated. He is focussing that none of them gets depressed. “A lot of my team members are getting demotivated and keep asking us why is it not happening, why is their life not moving forward. But my director and I keep talking to everybody and telling everyone that it is going to be fine soon. The time is such that we have to survive right now,” the Yaariyan (2014) actor says.
