His suspicion grows and he can’t even trust his colleagues, friends, and even police officers. Ritwick is playing the protagonist and Anirban will be seen as a police officer. Ishaa will be seen as Mala, who has an important role to play in the narrative.

Apart from this upcoming thriller, Joydeep has another web series in hand, based on Ullash Mullick’s ‘Dugdugi’ and his favourite Anirban Chakrabarti once again plays the lead role in the series. The cast also includes Sreya Bhattacharya, Rayati Bhattacharya, Lokenath Dey, and Atanu Buman in key roles. “The story follows the life of an average guy who struggles to handle the social pressure and starts to behave weirdly. A series of events changes his life forever,” adds the director. The series will start streaming in August.
