Leena Gangopadhyay and Saibal Banerjee are all set for their next project, a multistarrer titled ‘
Sanjhbati
’. Produced by Atanu Roy Choudhury, the upcoming family drama has already grabbed eyes for its stellar casting.
The most interesting part is this is the first time
Dev will share screen space with living legend
Soumitra Chatterjee. The ensemble cast also includes
Paoli Dam and Arpita Chatterjee as the female leads. Recently, the announcement of the film was done in the presence of the leading trio Dev, Paoli and Arpita along with the makers of the movie. It marks the first project under the banner of Bengal Talkies will go on floors from May eyeing a Christmas release later this year.
Speaking about the film, the director duo said ‘Sanjhbati’ sees relationship from a completely different angle. Dev will play the character of a suburban young man who comes to the city and meets a young girl played by Paoli in unusual circumstances.
Atanu Raychaudhuri, owner of Bengal Talkies said: “As I strive to make movies with great content, this movie is another humble approach that follows my passion. It feels great to be associated with such a movie that is based on unusual relationships. I have worked with Mr. Soumitra Chattopadhyay before and it is like a great learning for me every time we associate and work together. I feel the casting lineup is rather interesting here, Dev, Paoli and Arpita acting with legendary actor Shri Soumitra Chattopadhyay will have a strong impact on the audience. The director duo, Ms. Leena Gangopadhyay and Mr. Saibal Banerjee are great minds to work with as well, hope this movie will leave a lasting impression on the viewers.”
