Directors Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy chose to unveil the teaser for their highly anticipated film, Bohurupi, through a digital launch. This decision aligned with the national outcry of demanding justice for the victim in the RG Kar Medical College rape-murder that has shaken the nation.
Touted as “Bengal’s first action chase drama,” Bohurupi stars Abir Chatterjee, Ritabhari Chakraborty, Koushani Mukherjee and Shiboprosad Mukherjee, and promises to bring a fresh perspective to the action drama genre in Bengali cinema.
The teaser offers a tantalising glimpse into a riveting narrative set in Bengal, where two formidable adversaries and their loyal accomplices are at the heart of a high-stakes drama. The story unfolds with a gripping mix of bravery, intense challenges, and a dramatic chase that promises to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Themes of love, face-offs, and revenge are interwoven into the fabric of the plot, creating a rich tapestry of emotions and action. With its ambitious storyline and novel approach, Bohurupi is set to make an impact and elevate the action drama genre to new heights.
Director Nandita Roy shared, “Our initial plan was to release the teaser on August 14, but in light of the horrific incident at RG Kar Hospital, we chose to delay it as a mark of respect. As we prepare for our release this Pujo, we’ve opted for a digital launch. Bohurupi is more than just an action drama, and it has been an incredible journey. The film represents 12 years of careful planning and 34 intense days of shooting across 84 diverse locations. This film reflects the unwavering dedication and passion of everyone involved. Our goal was to redefine the action drama genre in Bengal, and I’m excited to finally share this epic story with our audience.”
Shiboprosad Mukherjee, who stars as Bikram in the film and also serves as co-director, added, “This project has been very close to my heart. The recent events have shaken us all, and as filmmakers, we have a responsibility to contribute to the conversation about justice and safety. I am grateful to Windows and my co-director Nandita Roy for this opportunity. The teaser is just a glimpse of what’s to come, and I believe it will resonate with viewers now more than ever.”
Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy’s 2016 blockbuster Praktan had bagged multiple National Awards. Bohurupi is set to release this Durga Puja.
