Detective Byomkesh Bakshy Updates: IN CINEMAS NOW! - Page 12

Sshhh, it's Sushant!

In town for a day's shoot for Dibakar Banerjee's Detective Byomkesh Bakshi, Sushant Singh Rajput hit the party trail on Saturday night...

London Street Cafe @ 12.15am

Settling down in the AC corner with a sugar-free Red Bull, the 28-year-old looked pretty happy. "I was very happy to know Calcutta's temperature is just 23 degrees, with partial clouds and rainfall. A few days back I was in Goa and it was so hot!" said Sushant, who loved the faux London street lamps at the cafe on the first floor of The Samilton hotel. At 12.50am, he got up to leave but not before scribbling "lovely ambience, food & hospitality " Love SSR" on the message board. "It's a cool place. I really liked the decor and the padded headrests. And I have lamps like these at my place," the actor told cafe owners Akbar Ali Agwan, Vineet Agarwal and Mazhar Badgujar.

Roxy @ 1am

Sushant pulled his cap to cover his face as he walked into a packed Roxy but made a quick turnaround. But trust the PYTs to spot a star even from a half-hidden profile! Oh, the Kai Po Che! hero is here!" shrieked one, Oh my god, I think Sushant Singh Rajput just passed by me!' squealed another.

Nocturne @ 1.10am

At Nocturne, a fan frenzy broke out with requests for pictures. Sushant obliged with a smile and then chose a corner with a sip in hand as DJ Iimrran played David Guetta's remixed version of Shot Me Down. "I really like this song. It was in the Kill Bill movie," he told a fan. SSR was in the mood to dance but with the last track being announced, the Bolly hottie headed for the night's last stop " The Basement.

Sip, bite & puff:

"Salmon, prawns with a lot of leafy veggies but no oil and spice" made up Sushant's dinner before he stepped out for the night. Later, he munched on Salad Dressing Chicken Platter with sugar-free Red Bull and puffed on orange-supari-gum flavoured hookah.

"The movie I am working on now is Paani (being directed by Shekhar Kapur) which requires me to be on a strict healthy diet... The movie has a Hollywood actress opposite me and a Hollywood actor as the villain. John Travolta (inset) was at the IIFA Awards this time, it was like his introduction to Bollywood... Well, that's a hint which I can give!" grinned Sushant.
