Here’s when camera will start rolling for ‘Dwitiyo Purush’

It seems Srijit Mukherji has no time to rest. His latest ‘Gumnaami’ is still ruling the box office and all set to become the biggest grosser of Tollywood in 2019. But the acclaimed director will start shooting for his next film ‘Dwitiyo Purush’ from October 18. It’s the sequel to his 2011 blockbuster thriller ‘Baishe Srabon’.

While the upcoming thriller will see Parambrata Chatterjee and Raima Sen reprising their roles, Anirban Bhattacharya, Rwitobroto Mukherjee and Gaurav Chakrabarty are the new joiners in the ‘Dwitiyo Purush’ cast.

The story of ‘Dwitiyo Purush’ will commence from where ‘Baishe Srabon’ had left off. Produced by SVF, it’s scheduled to release on January 23, 2020.

Following the success of his first film ‘Autograph’ in 2010, Srijit’s ‘Baishe Srabon’ is a heady cocktail of thriller, violence, music along with Bengali poetry. Probir Roychudhury’s bitterness and angst couldn’t have been essayed out better than Prosenjit Chatterjee, whose character seemed to be a far cry from the one in ‘Autograph’s mighty yet vulnerable superstar. Prosenjit stunned everyone with his performance as an ex-cop in this psychological thriller directed by Sriji Mukherji. According to the narrative, Prabir, suspended from his duty, works with the chief investigating officer (Parambrata) to nab a serial killer committing murder and leaving couplets from popular Bengali poems as a clue. Prosenjit’s remarkable acting was highly acknowledged by both the critics and audience. ‘Baishe Srabon’ eventually became one of the highest grossing films of 2011.
