Kolkata, 12th July 2019 – The Biggest Opener and the highest grossing film of 2019 Durgeshgorer Guptodhon completed 50 glorious days at the Box Office today.

With Durgeshgorer Guptodhon, Dhrubo Banerjee took the Bengali audience through an exciting treasure quest with ounces of adventure and a dash of Bangaliana. Sequel to the superhit Guptodhoner Sondhane, the films sees the suave Professor from Oxford Subarno Sen aka Sona Da (Abir Chatterjee) return for a second treasure hunt adventure and this time he visits one of his student’s ancestral home along with his favourites Aabir (Arjun Chakraborty) and Jhinuk ( Ishaa Saha).The great grandfather of this student was an erstwhile zamindar and a renowned artist of Bengal. There is a myth that runs in the family that they had once received a massive treasure, but all traces and trails of it had been lost. Sona’da along with Abir and Jhinuk join a festivity in that mansion in Durgeshgor and stumble upon the lost clues that may lead them in unearthing one of the greatest treasures of Bengal!
Delighted about this milestone achievement, lead actor Abir Chatterjee goes on to say: “Durgeshgorer Guptodhon got a phenomenal response at the Box Office from day one and since then the film has been giving multiple Housefull shows every week. I’m touched how the audience has embraced the film and my character Sona Da”

I’m humbled to see how young and old alike are still running to the theatres in the 7th week to watch the film. This is a big win for the Bengali film industry!”
