Shantilal O Projapoti Rohoshyo

Ritwick Chakraborty and
Paoli Dam in the lead, the thriller revolves around Shantilal. Life hasn`t been very kind to Shantilal, who is in his late thirties, unmarried and stuck in a thankless job as a weather reporter. On the other hand, Nandita is a popular movie star who has it all, and plans to venture into politics next.
When the worlds of these two people collide on a fateful day, it sets off a chain of incidents that take Shantilal on an adventurous rollercoaster ride from Kolkata to Chennai and Singapore. And at the end of it all, the unassuming reporter may just rediscover himself - as a sharp detective!
