Sunny Ghanshani: I've just followed Siddharth's conviction in Porus

Actor Sunny Ghanshani is a hard-working man. The actor, who hails from Bilaspur, Chattisgarh, is currently playing the role of Philip in Siddharth Kumar Tewary's Porus. Sunny is using a prosthetic patch in his eyes which is indeed hard to keep on for long hours.

Speaking on the look and the preparation Sunny says,"I was 75 kg and was asked to gain body muscle and I worked according to that and also gained weight. In three months time, I got the required muscles as well."


Sunny also adds,"I had appeared for 4 look tests along with Sameksha who plays Olympia and Rohit Purohit who plays Alexander. The eye patch which I wear in my eye is prosthetic. In extreme weather conditions and especially during heat it is difficult."

The introduction scene of Olympia and Philip was different and had a rape sequence. Sunny and Sameksha executed the scene brilliantly. Sunny says,"I have just followed Siddharth Sir's conviction in the show. Thanks to Sameksha also. She is an excellent actress and helped me in the scene. The rape scene was shot on the third day after we met. Thus both of us were extremely cautious while shooting." But at the end, the hard work paid off.

Bonnie Greer, playwright who never lost her edge, dies at 77

Bonnie Greer left Chicago's South Side wanting to be a lawyer, until a professor told her outright that he didn't think women belonged in law. She switched to theatre instead, studied under David Mamet in Chicago and Elia Kazan at New York's Actors Studio, and by the late 1970s was living in Manhattan's West Village. Then AIDS started taking her friends, one after another, and by 1986 she'd had enough. A production brought her to the Edinburgh Festival that year. She stayed in Britain for good, telling the Sunday Times two decades later that the move had saved her life — she needed, in her words, to "escape the shadow of death."

That's the Bonnie Greer most obituaries will lead with: American, Black, an outsider who came to Britain running from something. What's stranger, and more interesting, is what she became once she got here.
