Abhishek Bachchan has unveiled the first look of his upcoming film Bob Biswas. The actor essays the role of the infamous serial killer who was first seen in Vidya Balan’s 2012 film Kahaani. Bob Biswas was played by Saswata Chatterjee in Kahaani. The film will be premiered on ZEE5 on December 3.
Produced by Red Chilles Entertainment and Bound script, ‘Bob Biswas’ is directed by Diya Annapurna Ghosh and produced by Gauri Khan, Sujoy Ghosh and Gaurav Verma. Debutant Director Diya Annapurna Ghosh said: “I have had the most fantastic experience designing ‘Bob Biswas’, a crime-drama that has a love story in its essence. This film came to me in 2020 which was one of the most difficult times in all of our lives. I was blessed with a fabulous set of actors like Abhishek and Chitrangda amongst others who have given it their all.”
The crime drama is set against the backdrop of a love story, showcasing the dual life led by a contract killer, Bob Biswas. The film was shot in Kolkata and also stars Chitrangda Singh. Abhishek took to Instagram to share the motion poster of his character. He captioned the poster: “Ek minute’. The line refers to Bob’s dialogue in Kahaani. Along with the poster, Abhishek also revealed that the film’s trailer would be out on Friday (November 19) at 12 pm.
