Trailer and first song ‘Tor Sathe’ from Generation Aami released
Kolkata, 30th October 2018 – The trailer of, SVF and director Mainak Bhaumik’s first collaboration, Generation Aami was released this week and has already garnered a very popular response on social media. The first song of the film Tor Sathe was released today amidst the growing enthusiasm among the audience to watch this film.
Generation Aami is a unique tale of emotions that involve two generations and brings forth the special bond shared between siblings during their lifetime. The story revolves around around Apu (Rwitobroto Mukherjee) and his cousin Durga ( Sauraseni Maitra). A 17-year-old Apu’s relationship with his parents is tested as he discovers teenage rebellion and fun in the company of his cool but troubled 19-year-old cousin who shakes things up giving him the courage to be true to himself. This is a coming-of-age story of friendship, parenting, growing up and finding yourself.
What makes this film special is the fact that the script, which has been penned by the director himself, chronicles his own life story during his teenage years. The film is releasing on 23rd November 2018.
The trailer starts with the introduction of Apu and his parents and the sudden entry of his Chhordi (cousin) in their lives. This changes Apu’s life forever who, otherwise spent hours cramming textbooks, now dreams of pursuing his passion and aspirations amidst growing tension in his family.
Tor Sathe is a melodious song composed by music director Arindom Chatterjee and sung by Sudipto Chowdhury and narrates beautifully the first breath of independence that Apu a rule-abiding teenager experiences in the company of his cousin Durga and his other friends.
