Sushmita Sen with Richard Gere

Sushmita Sen’s acting career has reached a new high.

Even as her first Hollywood movie is yet to hit the marquee, Sushmita Sen is gearing up to act in her second American film in which she will be seen opposite Richard Gere, according to a newspaper report.

Sushmita already shares the screen space with supermodel Naomi Campbell and Drena De Niro (Robert De Niro’s daughter) in New York-based filmmaker Manish Gupta’s Indo-American movie Karma Confessions and Holi.

And now in another big stride the actress is reported to have clinched a role in the US-based filmmaker Sutapa Ghosh’s The Expat.

The movie, to be produced by Miramax films, will have Sushmita portraying an Indian immigrant. Gere is Sush’s co-star in the film. The movie will be shot in Argentina but the shooting schedule is yet to be finalized.

Meanwhile, Sushmita is busy in promoting her upcoming film Zindagi Rocks which stars Shiney Ahuja, Kim Sharma, Mausami Chatterjee and Seema Biswas.
