/> The shooting for Pradeep Sarkar's Laga Chunri Mein Daag is over. What Konkona remembers with much fondness is the endless dollops of Bengali cuisine. "There was a constant inflow of Bengali cuisine on the sets because all of us were Bengali. And of course everyone spoke in rapidfire Bengali."

Kunal Kapoor would often scratch his head wondering what was being said. Laughs Konkona, "I just loved the food and the atmosphere on the sets of Laga Chunri... and yes, I'm going to miss the warmth of the unit."

She has just shot a song with Abhishek Bachchan. "Abhishek is loads of fun on the sets. I get along so well with his mother anyway. And I really like Kunal Kapoor. We've done two back-to-back Yash Raj Films Aaja Nachle after Laga Chunri.... I'm very comfortable with him. Laga Chunri ...is a very vibrant films. And a terrific film to shoot because it took us in Varanasi, Switzerland and Mumbai."

Konkona has just finished shooting her current assignments. She's now taking off for a holiday to France. "I'm off with my friends for a week. I love holidays and look for any excuse to go abroad. Whatever I've in life I make the best of it.So far it's all very nice."

Konkona is now looking at new assignments. "I'll come back from my holiday and then take a call on my new assignments."

One of her new projects would be a film with her mother. "Yes, after she's done with The Japanese Wife we plan to work together again next year. Did I miss working with her in The Japanese Wife? Not at all. She must work with other actresses, just as I'm working with other directors."

Would her mom and Konkona collaborate on a Hindi film? "Not necessarily. Why in Hindi? I don't think the language of the film should be important. I started in Bengali films and came to Hindi cinema by chance. Now again I've just completed a Bengali film. As long as it's an interesting film I don't care whether it's in English,Hindi or Bengali."
