Well Done Abba
Well Done Abba has turned out to be a sort of a tragedy.

Groups of people who saw him disembark at the airport mistook him for actor Rajit Kapoor (of Shyam Benegal’s Suraj Ka Satwan Ghoda and Mammo fame). The identity-crisis continued all over the city throughout the day even when he introduced himself as a director, people wanted to know if had switched from acting to direction!
Says Dibakar, “All my life I’ve been mistaken for Rajit. Even our voices are the same. So I’m not surprised. Many years ago, when Rajit Kapoor was doing the serial Bhyomkesh Bakshi on Doordarshan..
