Belashuru, the last film of Bangla cinema legend Soumitra Chattopadhyay, could release on his birthday, January 19, if things normalise in the wake of the ongoing pandemic.
The film is directed by the acclaimed duo of Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy. On Friday, speaking to IANS, Mukherjee spoke of release plans of the film.
“Belashuru is the sequel to Bela Seshe (2015) and it is also Soumitra Da’s last film, which makes it really close to our heart. The film was ready to be released on the 5th of June this year, but the pandemic had other plans and we had to postpone release. We are waiting for things to normalise and once 100 per cent audience is allowed in the theatres, we will release the film. Now we are planning to release the film on January 19, 2021, on Soumitra Da’s birthday. If that doesn’t work out then, we will have to push the release to May 28, 2021,” said Mukherjee.
Soumitra Chattopadhyay worked with Mukherjee and Roy in films like Bela Sheshe, Praktan and Posto in recent years.
Mukerjee said he planned to collaborate on more projects with the actor. “We last met on August 29 this year, and we planned to do a short film around 14th December along with a full-length feature film. It was a plan of around two month but, alas, it remained a plan. Since 2013, we have been working every year in winter, but this year we couldn’t,” said Mukherjee. (IANS)
