Kolkata, Mar 16 (IBNS): Actress Mimi Chakraborty, who has been fielded by the ruling Trinamool Congress from Jadavpur Lok Sabha constituency for the general polls, on Friday said she is no more a part of director Birsa Dasgupta’s upcoming rom-com ‘Bibaho Obhijaan’.

She was paired opposite Ankush Hazra in the movie.

Mimi said she made the move in the interest  of the film.

"Recently it was announced that I would be a part of SVF’s next film, Bibaho Obhijaan, directed by Birsa Dasgupta. Since the announcement of my candidature this week for upcoming elections, I have, in due interest of the film and production team, decided to step down from the role. I feel it was necessary to honour my immediate commitments without disrupting the film production schedule. I wish the entire team of Bibaho Obhijaan much luck and success!," the actress tweeted a statement.

Mimi rose to fame by playing the role of "Pupe", the female lead in the mega serial Gaaner Oparey.

She worked in several popular Tollywood movies which included Bojhena Shey Bojhena, Bangali Babu English Mem, Jamai 420 and Posto.
