Talking about the film Rohit said, “I’m doing a major project called Pa Ma Ga Re Sa, which is a modern musical love story. It will be my first Bengali film and it is special because it is based on Abhimaan. It is basically an adaptation of the film”

Besides Rohit, the other cast of the film includes Gauri Karnik (who previously appeared in Sur) and former Miss India (Earth) Reshmi Ghosh. Surajit Dhar will direct the film. Some scenes of the film are already done. Rohit right now is also hosting a TV reality show Jhalak Dikkhala Jaa with co-host Shweta Tiwari. But he will soon move to Kolkata for shooting of the remaining part. This is the actor’s first Bengali film.

Apart from this, the actor has many Bollywood projects in line like Mittal Vs Mittal and Alibaug. Rohit always played different kind of roles in his films including Shootout At Lokhandwala and the actor is proud of it.

“As an actor, I can’t draw a line and decide a set kind of roles that I want to do, I have to be diverse and I am enjoying doing it,” adds the actor.

However, the director Rohit is also eying to remake the 1981’s classic of Basu Chatterjee’s Shaukeen. The film had story of three old men’s adventure in Goa.
