Ishaa Saha is excited to work with

Arindam

Sil in Mahananda. The film is inspired by the

life

of

Mahasweta Devi

. The film also stars Gargee RoyChowdhury and Gaurav Chakraborty in the lead. “This will be my first film with Arindam da. And most of my scenes are with Gargee di. So, I am looking forward to it. The film is about an author

Mahananda

whose character has similarities with the life and persona of

Mahashweta Devi

. And another person from a very different background and upbringing becomes interested in Mahananda. She is young vibrant Mahalaya (played by me). She slowly evolves in the presence and under the influence of Mahananda. Mahananda is the story of this passing on of the torch. The torchbearers from different ages who carry forward the concept, the movement named Mahashweta. It is a story of giving direction to our lives in this time of social-political unrest,” said the actress.
