Tollywood is all set to get a fresh pair in
Rishav Basu and
Bibriti Chatterjee. The new pair will be seen in
Tathagata Mukherjee’s next directorial ‘
Votvoti
’.
Rishav will play a young man Votvoti who lives in a slum and collects coin thrown into the river Ganges for living. Votvoti believes there’s a mermaid living in the river, however nobody believes him. Bibriti who played an important role in
Arindam Sil’s ‘Byomkesh Gowtro’ last year will be seen as the mermaid.
Rishav has a rich theatre background and forayed into films with a horror thriller ‘Kuasha Jakhon’ last year. Tathagata plans to start shooting for his new film from August 27. Produced by Pramod Films and PSS Entertainments ‘Votvoti’ will be extensively shot in and around Bengal.
Tathagata’s last directorial, Titled ‘Unicorn’, received critical acclaims. The story around the mythical unicorn and Bengal’s famous traditional ‘Nokshikatha’, tries to merge both to create an impassioned tale.
