<p>Opening up about the career change he decided to make after turning 50-years-old, Chatterjee said, "It was my calculative decision after I crossed 50 years, the kind of cinema I had been pulling on for 25-30 years will be for the next generation. Now, let me do something that goes with my image, I built my image in my own way."</p>
<p>He went on to open up about working with the late Rituparno Ghosh, after playing the romantic and action hero for a long time. "I had done around 9 films with Ritu, I was lucky enough. He made me realise they was more to me than the mainstream hero who did a lot of action and dance. He made me understand that I have something else and I started nurturing it. I managed to make the shift and I have been doing it for the past 10 years. For Bangla especially I need to think about what else I can do." He added that after 'Shesh Pata' it's become a 'challenge' and a 'nightmare' to pick his next project. "After doing 300 films I'm enjoying doing Srikant Roy and Balmiki Sengupta."</p>
<p>Speaking about choosing Bengali films over the Hindi offers he had been getting he said, "I was not in a hurry 20-25 years back and I'm not in a hurry today. I look for a good director and subject. I did Dibakar Banerjee's 'Shanghai' because I really wanted to work with him."</p>
