Tena Dease is making her Indian film debut alongside one of Bollywood’s greats


Tena Dease is making her Indian film debut alongside one of Bollywood’s greats, Anupam Kher, in the film Yeh Faasle. The movie deals with her character’s relationship with her father, whom she has adored all her life, on discovering his dark secret and his hidden propensity for violence.
This Bangalore born model turned actor, who has been the face of more than 90 commercials, will be seen romancing Dev Patel in John Madden’s ‘The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel’. The all-star cast includes Judi Dench, Tom Wilkinson, Bill Nighy and Maggie Smith.
Praising her co-star, Tena says, “Dev is a very good actor; he’s very versatile and energetic. He’s lots of fun too; his humor makes him very endearing.”
“Hollywood was terrific, their culture is so different. I learnt about their ways and taught them mine. We shot during Diwali, so I gave them recipes for authentic festival food. We all had a wonderful time,” says Tena recalling her experience for the shoot.
It was the superstar SRK who inspired the beautiful girl to pursue her career in acting. “After watching a Shah Rukh Khan film, I cried like never before. It was then I realized that I was made for the screen,” says Tena.
