Srabanti’s son enters industry? Preparations are on says actress | Bengali Movie News
Abhimanyu Chatterjee, son of actor Srabanti, may be the latest entrant into the Bengali film industry, with industry buzz pointing to a possible debut under a leading production house. While there has been no official confirmation, sources indicate that discussions are underway.The 21-year-old is currently based in Mumbai, where he is undergoing training in drama and theatre, along with method acting and voice modulation. He is also exploring modelling assignments to build camera confidence and enhance his screen presence.Despite his background, Abhimanyu says he is keen to build his career independently. “I do not wish to rely on my family name, especially my mother’s influence, to secure a launch in the film industry. That is one of the main reasons I shifted to Mumbai, where I am currently undergoing acting training to prepare myself for auditions and earn projects on my own merit. I am also actively exploring opportunities in Mumbai, including web series. At the same time, I am trying my hand at modelling, as it helps improve my body language and enables me to face the camera with greater confidence and ease,” he said.
How important is patience in building a successful career in the entertainment industry?

That foundation is important for anyone who wants to build a lasting career,” she said.Patience is key – I tell my son to focus on the long run, not overnight success – SrabantiI’m modelling in Mumbai while training for cinema, but I’m not in a position to comment on the reported offer – Abhimanyu
