Soumik Sen is all set for his upcoming biopic on the famous magician PC Sorcar Junior. Soumik was initially planning to make this film just after his directorial debut ‘Gulaab Gang’ but the project had to be postponed at that time due to several issues. But now speculation is rife that the director has started working again on his dream project.
The biopic will reportedly be shot mostly at the popular Sorcar Bari in Kolkata and in Sonarpur.
According to industry sources, Soumik Sen is right now busy with his upcoming Bengali film ‘Mahalaya’. He will start working on the PC Sorcar Junior biopic after completing this Bengali movie.
Meanwhile, the plot of ‘Mahalaya’ is all about the controversial change in 1976 that Mahalaya on the radio went through, as Bengal’s matinee idol
Uttam Kumar replaced legendary Birendra Krishna Bhadra. As per reports, Jisshu Sengupta will portray Uttam Kumar on the celluloid, while Subhamoy Chatterjee will play Pankaj Mullick and Subhashish Mukherjee to be seen as Birendra Krishna Bhadra.
