Amitabh Bachchan & Taapsee Pannu’s Badla to release on this date

Highlights:

• Romesh admits he’s aware of possible overexposure but says he chooses work based on gut feeling and quality.
• He makes his West End debut opposite Sheridan Smith in Alan Ayckbourn’s Woman in Mind.
• The play runs at the Duke of York’s Theatre from 9 December to 28 February, then in Sunderland and Glasgow in March.
• Romesh will play Bill, the doctor who links Susan’s real and imagined worlds.
• He balances television, radio, and stage work by turning down offers he doesn’t think he can do well.

Romesh Ranganathan says he knows the word “overexposure” follows him around and he’s decided it’s a risk worth taking. The comedian, who is making his West End debut, told the BBC he deliberately turns down roles at times but will say yes when a job feels right, putting “overexposure” and the play’s pull, plus the chance to work with Sheridan Smith, at the centre of his decision. This new stage turn comes as Romesh juggles television presenting, radio, and touring stand-up, and it is also his first proper stage role since primary school.
