Muscat born model Sanjana Banerjee recently signed her first film with SVF, turning her childhood passion for acting into a reality. She is currently studying Literature in correspondence while pursuing her career concurrently.
She has lived in the Middle East for most years of her life. When she came of age, she found her vocation in the field of acting and decided to come back to her roots, given India’s strong entertainment industry and international fame through a century of quality films produced in the nation. Her family was extremely supportive about her decision and moved back to Kolkata, where she is currently set to begin filming her first Tollywood project.
Optimistic about the new talent discovery Shrikant Mohta, Co-founder and Director, SVF said – “SVF has always been instrumental in contributing to the talent flow of the Bengali Entertainment Industry and will continue to do so over the period of time. We have faith in Sanjana’s talent and wish her the best”.

Sanjana would be an addition to the talent pool.
Sanjana, who is ecstatic about working with SVF, said – “I’m on cloud nine at the moment and feel extremely fortunate to get my first break with SVF and to be able to work opposite a superstar like Yash”.
Fidaa is a very realistic love story about today’s youth and their perception of love. Starring Yash & Sanjana in lead roles, the film will be directed by Pathikrit Basu and is currently on floors, scheduled to release this Eid.
