Bollywood superstars Ritiesh Deshmukh and Koena Mitra have one thing in common - a dream to have lots of money. The actors were in the capital to promote their forthcoming movie, Apna Sapna Money Money.
The film, slated to release on November 10, is a rib-tickling comedy, which revolves around a bunch of madcap characters who eat, drink, sleep and worship money.
Ritiesh Deshmukh plays three characters in the movie, one of which is that of a conman. Says Ritiesh, "Apna Sapna is a well-scripted movie and a complete family entertainer. I play Kishen in the film and also Sania and Sarju. It was a great learning experience for me to play three different characters in one single film."
So was it difficuilt? "I don't think that it was difficult doing the scenes. What was more difficult was to dress up and put on make-up. In fact Koena would take an hour to get ready while it took me three hours to do the make-up. I would also watch all the actresses around to learn the way a woman behaves and reacts. So, it was quite fun."
Koena Mitra, who returns to the silverscreen after her blink-and-miss performance in Ek Khiladi Ek Hasina, plays Julie, a Catholic girl in the movie.
The actress is doing a comedy film for the first-time in her acting career. "I've done many kind of roles, but this was a little different and difficult as well. I think comedy is very difficult to do and this was what drew me towards this film. I hope that everyone likes my role in the film," says the Bengali bombshell.

Talking about the USP of the film, Koena says that the entire package itself is the USP, "Besides being a Subhash Ghai movie, the film is an out-an-out comedy and I guess it will be liked my all. It showcases the lives of four different people with one common dream and that is making money.," she says.
So, is money a sapna for them in real life as well? Says Ritiesh, "I guess everyone dreams to have money and lead a comfortable life. I am no different from others. But yes there is a limit to everything. I guess money is important but not everything in life."
