Mumbai, Jan 7: Veteran Bollywood actress Anita Raj is open for doing any kind of roles in the television these days. She has been offered to portray the role of Satyavati in the tv serial “Mahabharata” aired on Star Plus channel by Siddharth Kumar Tewary. But according to the sources close to her, we got to know the deal could not be finalized because the role offered to her was not impressive to Anita.
Also Anita asked for a huge amount of money as remunneration as she was once a popular actress of the film industry. These reasons were enough for her to walk out of the mythological serial. So right now the yesteryear actress is seeking.

I was extremely wary of watching this movie. Except for a couple of trailers and songs, the only little information I had was that it’s Tusshar Kapoor’s solo-hero project. That limited knowledge did not warrant for a theatre watch. The makers had not succumbed to marketing gimmicks, the films promotional appearances were far and few. Samir Karnik’s whose last flick Yamla Pagala Deewana was a moderately successful yet ludicrous outing; banking on Deol strength, returns with a similar feel sticking to the familiar recipe.

Adding to the royal tomfoolery are CV’s four sons each characterized by idiosyncrasies – lecherous ‘choli’ leering pervert (Mukul Dev), hot-tempered with a passion for arms (Sushant Singh), alcoholic (Chandrachur Singh) and Harish.

Anita Raj, who was a popular actress in the 80s, will now be seen in Samir Karnik's Char Din Ki Chandni. Anita has already finished shooting for the film which will release early next year. Apparently, she will be seen essaying the role of a queen in the film. Anita Raj made her Bollywood debut in the 1981 romantic film Prem Geet, which got her critical acclaim for her performance. She went on to star in many successful films post that. She worked with all the top notch directors and actors of her time. Anita Raj's last major release was Ghar Ki Izzat which had released way back in 1994. After the failure of her comeback film Thoda Life Thoda Magic in 2007, Anita decided to wait for the right role. She was in no rush to be in the limelight, but Samir Karnik convinced her to give her career another shot.
