Konkona Sen Sharma 'for erotic film'

Konkona Sen Sharma is to appear in a new project which is being touted as Bollywood's first erotic film.

According to The Times of India, the recently-married actress will feature as one of the leads in the Vinay Shukla movie.

The director told the newspaper: "Mirch is India's first film in the erotic genre. Yet the beauty lies in the fact that it is not a titillating film."

The production reportedly presents five parallel tracks based around the theme of adultery.

"There are multiple narratives running in the film but all are interconnected to seem like an organic whole," said the filmmaker.

The Page 3 star is joined by Ila Arun, as well as Shreyas Talpade, Shahana Goswami, Raima Sen, Mahi Gill and Rajpal Yadav, in the multi-starrer.
