The first-look poster of Aparna Sen’s ‘Ghawre Bairey Aaj’ out now

The wait is finally over! Here’s the first look poster from Aparna Sen’s ‘Ghawre Bairey Aaj’ inspired by Rabindranath Tagore’s classic novel ‘Ghawre Bairey’. The poster, on the backdrop of a sociopolitical turmoil, introduces Nikhilesh, Bimala and Sandip played by Anirban Bhattacharya, Tuhina Das and Jisshu Sengupta respectively. The growing tension reflecting in the trio’s eyes will surely double your excitement.

Check out the poster here:

While Anirban Bhattacharya will be seen as Nikhilesh, Jisshu Sengupta will essay the character of Sandip. In 1984 these two roles were supremely enacted by Victor Banerjee and Soumitra Chatterjee respectively in Satyajit Ray’s screen adaptation of the same novel. Young actress Tuhina Das has been cast as Brinda, a modern take on the character Bimala which was played by Swatilekha Sengupta in the Ray classic. Tuhina was earlier seen in Arindam Sil’s ‘Aschhe Abar Shabor’. Anjan Dutt will be seen as Mastarmoshai, which was earlier played by Manoj Mitra in Ray’s film.

Tagore’s ‘Ghawre Bairey’ is all about the love triangle of Nikhilesh, his wife Bimala and his friend Sandip. When Bimala realises the complex emotions of her relationship with Sandip, it marks her growth as a person.
