KALIKI NOT DONNING DIRECTORS'S HAT

Actor Kalki Koechlin (right), who is popular for portraying unconventional roles on the silver screen, says she has no immediate plans to don the director's hat. Asked if she plans to direct a film anytime soon, Kalki said, “No, I have no plans right now. I don't think that I would be directing a film anytime soon.”

The Shaitan actor says she doesn't “really plan what happens next.” “For now, I am just focusing on films and theatre," she added.

Kalki will be seen in an upcoming film directed by Konkona Sen Sharma which also features Vikrant Massey, Gulshan Devaiah, Om Puri, Tillotama Shome, Tanuja and Ranvir Shorey.

Apart from this, Kalki says she has several other projects.

"So, I have a project which is a web-series. It revolves around Goa politics and Goa mafia," said the actor, who is currently in the US to stage Rajat Kapoor's play “What's Done Is Done” for three weeks.

Does she see women-centric films as a phase?

"There is need for these phases. I will be very happy if there is no need for them because women are empowered. As long as women are in need of being recognised, I think this phase will continue," said the 32-year-old actor.

Kalki recently acted in Waiting, opposite Naseeruddin Shah.
