Darshana Banik to portray as Suchitra Sen in her next project

Actress Darshana Banik is set to portray the iconic Suchitra Sen in Dr Krishnendu Chatterjee's upcoming film Jomaloye Jibonto Bhanu. Based on the life of legendary Bengali actor Bhanu Bandyopadhyay, the titular role will be played by actor Saswata Chatterjee. The film is set to release this year.

The first look of Darshana as Suchitra Sen has been released and has gone viral on social media. She is seen wearing a chiffon saree with a ribbon bow in her hair and a sleek neckpiece. Capturing the grace and charisma of the Mahanayika will be challenging, and the audience's anticipation is high to see how Darshana portrays it.

Speaking about the part, Darshana said, “It’s a big opportunity for me. I’m equally excited and nervous to play this role.” Raima Sen, actress and granddaughter of Suchitra Sen , has wished Darshana the best.

The film also stars Paran Bandopadhyay, Ambarish Bhattacharya, and Debleena Dutt in pivotal roles.
