Rudranil set to wield the megaphone in 2021

Rudranil Ghosh was all set to direct his first film in 2020, but couldn’t because of the pandemic and the subsequent lockdown. This year, the actor is all set to don the director’s hat just before Durga Puja. When asked about it, Rudranil said, “I was supposed to direct my film in 2020 but everything went haywire because of the pandemic. Now, when things are slowly getting normal, I plan to start directing my film.”

What is the storyline of the film, we ask. “I am not going to reveal the storyline but the film is about a common man’s struggle to survive. It is a story about people like you and me and our daily struggle. I am not going to act in this film. And I want to cast an actor with great acting skills as the film needs a potential actor. Basically, I want an actor who will be himself and not act in front of the camera,” said the actor who will be in Mumbai in February to shoot for

Maidaan

.

Rudranil

is also part of Srimanta Sengupta’s film, Bochor Kuri Por, besides Abir Chatterjee,
