Jisshu’s younger daughter Zara in Uma?

With its music release, Srijit Mukherji’s much anticipated film Uma has created quite a buzz. The film is inspired by the incident of Evan Leversage, a Canadian boy diagnosed with a terminal illness, and how an entire Canadian city recreated Christmas in the month of October to make Evan happy for a day. Uma, on the other hand talks about a girl who is fighting a terminal disease and his father recreates Durga Puja in Kolkata to show her the true spirit of the festival. While the father’s character is being played by Jisshu Sengupta, the daughter role is played by Jishu’s elder daughter Sara Sengupta.

But did you know, along with Jisshu and Sara, Jisshu’s younger daughter Zara has also acted in the film? Jishu revealed, while shooting a song sequence in Switzerland, Srijit asked Zara to act in the song. “Even though it is for a few seconds Zara is there in the film. And that’s why this film is more special to me,” the actor said.
