Souvik Mitra's Curzoner Kolom is a comic caper revolving around north Kolkata's Mittir Bari. More than a 100 years back, the family was gifted a gold pen by Lord
Curzon
, who had come to inaugurate their Durga Puja. The family now needs to auction the pen to save the house from falling on bad times. But nobody can locate the pen which was hidden by Panchubrata, the then head of the family, despite the clues he gave out on his death bed. Lead pair of the film,
Shaheb Bhattacherjee
and
Poulomi Das, shot exclusively for CT ahead of the release.
"The film shows how Pupu -the eldest daughter of this generation -and her childhood friend, Tatu (played by me), try to crack the clues to find the pen. The clues are a little tricky and that makes their journey even more interesting. The audience needs to watch the film to find out if the duo is successful in their amateur sleuth apprenticeship to find the pen,“ said
Shaheb
Bhattacherjee, who plays the protagonist in the film.
"Several hilarious incidents unfold in their quest to spot the missing pen, resulting in a laugh riot. “With actors like
Kanchanda
(Mullick), Kharajda (Mukherjee) and Paranda (Bandopadhyay) in the same film, it turned out to be more of an acting workshop for me," Shaheb further added.
Talking about her co-actor, Poulomi Das, who plays Pupu in the film, said, “Shaheb used to scold me on the sets but it ultimately helped me perform better. He is the one who taught me how to take the light during a shot.
