Acting
Babul Supriyo is a Mutli-Talented Personality with many skill sets up his sleeve. Acting is one such skill that he started demonstrating first by playing the lead role in Tarun Majumdar's Bengali Film Chander Bari (2007). This was followed by his next Film - A Remake of Uttam Kumar's "Ogo Bodhu Shundori" (based on 'My Fair Lady'1980) where he again played the lead role apart from singing all the songs, sung by Kishore Kumar in the original film.
Besides being the "Hero" he has also shot for a Negative Role in Sandeep Ray's (Son of the legendary Satyajit Ray) film, "Hitlist" (2009).
Starting 2013, Babul will feature in debutante Sameer Tiwari's upcoming comedy film along with Arshad Warsi, Paresh Rawal, and Jaaved Jaffrey. The film is being produced by Bhola Malviya, a close friend of Supriyo's, as reported in Mid-day.

Famous quotes containing the word acting:
“It especially helps if you know that we’re all faking our adulthood—even your parents and their parents. Beneath these adult trappings—in our president, in our parents, in you and me—lurk the emotions of a child. If we know that only about ourselves, we become infantile; if we understand that about everybody, then we have nothing to be ashamed of—unless, of course, we go around acting like a child and expecting everyone else to act like grownups.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“More than in any other performing arts the lack of respect for acting seems to spring from the fact that every layman considers himself a valid critic.”
—Uta Hagen (b. 1919)
“Blessed be the inventor of photography! I set him above even the inventor of chloroform! It has given more positive pleasure to poor suffering humanity than anything else that has “cast up” in my time or is like to—this art by which even the “poor” can possess themselves of tolerable likenesses of their absent dear ones. And mustn’t it be acting favourably on the morality of the country?”
—Jane Welsh Carlyle (1801–1866)
