Shaheb Chatterjee
has been busy rehearsing for his next ‘
Antony Kobial
’ directed by
Kamaleswar Mukherjee.
“It is a new format in which Kamal da is working. It is called theatrical cinema. We will be shooting from October 12 to 14 at a studio with a proper camera set up and technicians as we do for films. I remember in the early days of my career, Sandip Ray shot
Mayar Khela
in an opera format. It was a complex love story written by Rabindranath Tagore,
which was woven in melody. Similarly, Kamal da is shooting Anthony Kobial in a theatrical cinematic format. I play the titular role in this project while Kharaj Mukherjee plays
Bhola Moira
,” informed the actor, who has recorded 17 songs which are part of this project.
Sharing more details about the project he said, “I loved this project as I play a singer-writer and folk poet of Portuguese origin known for his works in Bengali devotional songs in the early part of the 19th century. It is very challenging for any actor. The bonus is that I am getting to sing in Antony Kobial and everyone knows singing is my passion. Recently I shot a music video with
Adrija Roy
who was my co-actor in TV serial earlier,” added Shaheb.
