Looks like biopics will soon become a trend in Bengali cinema as well. We already know
Srijit Mukherji is making a biopic on freedom fighter Bina Das, Anjan Dutt set for his film on Binay-badol-Dinesh and even
Aniket Chattopadhyay is making a biopic on Padma Shri Subhasini Mistry.
And now we hear, a biopic on Bengali cinema’s living legend
Soumitra Chatterjee is in the making. So, who will don the director’s hat for this project? Speculation is rife actor-director
Parambrata Chatterjee is likely to helm the biopic.
Soumitra Chatterjee himself has admitted the discussions are in primary stage only and there hasn’t been any decision on the cast as well.
Soumitra Chatterjee has managed to break all those preconceived notions of retirement – even at age of 83 he is more active than ever. He still remains an inspiration to actors all around the world showing us how to live life to the fullest. How lucky we are to be born in such an age of a wonderful maestro! He has become an artist of such a stature that no awards can define him anymore.
