Rajaditya begins third part of his Death Trilogy

Rajaditya Banerjee

, who wrapped up the shoot of

Shivaratri

recently, has already begun his next — ShobBahika. It is the last part of his Death Trilogy after

Death Certificate

and Shivaratri. The film revolves around a woman who carries dead bodies on her van. Giving us a peek into the storyline, the director said, “Romola has a strange job. She needs to deliver goods in a cycle van in a suburb outside Kolkata . However, she is not briefed what she needs to deliver. One day her employer informs her she needs to dispose off unidentified dead bodies. One winter morning on a foggy day she falls asleep in her van only to wake up later and realize she has started interacting with a dead man. The dead man doesn’t seem dead to her after all. His warmth gives her hope. Romola realises her boyfriend Raju, although alive, is actually dead from the inside. She wishes she could dispose off or burn her relationship with Raju just likes she burns unidentified corpses.” A bigger twist in the tale comes when Kolkata becomes a valley of death. Intellectuals, feminists , politicians are murdered one after another. “Who is behind these gruesome murders? Who is on a killing spree? Who is Romola speaking with? Do the dead speak in an unspoken language? Why are we afraid of death when what we should really fear is a life unlived,” explained the director. While Death Certificate is about a tribal woman and her search for her husband Ramlokhon, who doesn’t return home one evening, Shivaratri is about an iconoclast who turns into an armed rebel.
