After doing television serials, like Des Mein Nikla Hoga Chand, Swabhimaan and films like Fashion and Shootout at Lokhandwala, actor Rohit Roy is retiring from acting and turning into a director. This will not be the first time that Rohit will be directing films. He has earlier directed a short story Rice Plate from Dus Kahaniyaan which included actors like Shabana Azmi and Naseeruddin Shah. The story depicted a Hindu woman and a Muslim man’s journey over a rice plate and the challenge that the woman faces when a strange man claims her plate of rice.

The actor, whose last film Apartment was not a success at the box office, said, “I have retired from acting and now I am only concentrating on my film which I will be directing and I want to get totally into it.” With hardly any TV shows and films up his sleeve, we guess it’s better he turns to something else, direction, in this case.
