Why Jayjit Banerjee was worrying all of Friday?

Tropical cyclone Fani preponed the summer vacation for students in government schools along with government sponsored and non-government aided schools in Bengal. On Thursday, a circular was sent out by the school education department asking for suspension of classes from May 3 onwards. The vacation will continue till June 30. The state government has also urged private schools to consider the situation and prepone the summer vacation. Since some of the schools remained open on Friday, when Fani made a landfall in Odisha, and was supposed to leave an impact on Kolkata, parents were a worried lot. Said actor

Jayjit Banerjee

when we spoke to him on Friday morning, “My son, Jashojeet, had to attend school as his fest was held on Friday. Had it been a regular school day, it wouldn’t have mattered, but he was keen on attending the fest.” Jashojeet debuted last December in

’s children’s adventure film,

Adventures of Jojo

, and played the title role. He also worked in a short film, 1.4 GB, after that. While the production was helmed by his father, Manas Basu wielded the megaphone for it. Jayjit further added, “My wife,

, was supposed to travel outside Kolkata on work. But her flight got cancelled. So, it’s worries and more of it at home.” Incidentally, all flights to and from Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport remained suspended from 3 pm on Friday till 8 am Saturday. Later in the day, Jayjit informed that all was well and Jashojeet was home safe and sound.
