Screen Pair

Anik Dutta's next to have Abir and Gargee in lead

अनिक दत्ता अगले नेतृत्व में अबीर और गार्गॆ है करने के लिए

In 2012, Anik Dutta — so far a familiar name in advertising — made an entry into Tollywood and gifted the industry the biggest hit of the year. Bhooter Bhobishyot, about a disputed property where bulldozers threatened a gang of ghosts inhabiting the palatial mansion, not just brought smiles to the faces of Bengal's cine-goers, but also helped theatre owners laugh their way to the bank. Dutta became a name to reckon with and he followed up the success story with Aschorjo Prodip based on a short story by Shirshendu Mukhopadhyay.

Though that film was a moderate success, Dutta was nowhere to be seen after Gang of Ghosts, the Hindi remake of Bhooter Bhobishyot, failed to leave a mark at the box office. Now, after three years, the filmmaker — known for his brand of humour — is set to make a comeback. The storyline is neatly guarded by the team, but a little birdie tells us the film is set to star Abir Chatterjee and Gargee RoyChowdhury as a screen pair.
