Upen Patel to march at I-Day parade in LA

Britain-born actor Upen Patel had the honor to represent India in Los Angeles. He is one among the luckiest people like Bipasha Basu and Deepika Padukone who were bestowed with such credit. Upen is the first Bollywood actor to join the parade which will take place on August 10. He is quite elated to get the call from Los Angeles.  "I believe Bipasha Basu and other Bollywood queens got the honor earlier. So I'm quite delighted", quips Upen.

Another moment of glory for Upen is his newly constructed house on Pali Hill in Bandra. He is taking suggestion about designing and decorating his abode from Eric Mutheza, a designer from Dubai via internet. "He never personally came down to look at my place. I gave him design specifications on email and he instructed his assistants in Mumbai to do the needful. But it's turned out beautifully," Upen said

Upen Patel’s career is not going great guns but he is struggling hard to get everything in the proper order and grab meaty roles. Till now, he starred in 36 China Town, Namastey London, Money Hai Toh Honey Hai and One Two Three.
