I want to retire: Victor Banerjee

When we call him at his Mussorie residence, Victor Banerjee���s in the middle of testing his culinary skills. ���Can you call me back in 15 minutes?��� he asks.
We do, and this time, he sounds at ease. ���I was having fun in the kitchen,��� he says. His last few projects haven���t been ���fun���, though. ���Apne was a disaster. Anil Sharma hired me for three months, but it took a year-and-a-half.As for Amavasya, we reshot it two years ago. It was directed by Srinivas, a new director, who put in his own money. I walked away just after finishing a project, so I don���t know if it���ll release,��� says Victor. His last release, Anjan Dutt���s Chowrasta ��� Crossroads of Love, released in a few multiplexes; the turnout was less. ���My daughter hated it. She went with her friends, who made her pay for the tickets. There were only three people in the hall,��� he laughs.
The man of the mountains has just finished shooting the NFDC-produced bilingual, As the River Flows, to be dubbed
in Hindi and Assamese. Though the actor is busy with work, he plans to hang up his boots soon. ���I���m looking at retirement. I want to settle down in Mussorie. I���m in love with the Himalaya. I���ll make enough money by next year and retire,��� he asserts.
