Kolkata/IBNS: Star Media Ventures, Pratyush productions along with Neo Studios have unveiled the poster look of Pratidwandi (Adversary) at the Oxford book Store of Park Street here on Saturday.

The film, which is slated to release on Christmas Eve, is a crime drama set in a medical backdrop is being directed by Saptaswa Basu, starring Saswata Chatterjee, Rudranil Ghosh, Saurav Das, Saayoni Ghosh, Rajdeep Sarkar, Maahi Kar, and Rini Ghosh.

In the second directorial venture, Saptaswa Basu has dealt with a crime drama set in a medical backdrop.

Rudranil Ghosh plays a Mathematics teacher named Sukumar Sen and apparently has a rivalry with Saswata Chatterjee, who is playing Dr. Bakshi, while murders and kidnapping start taking place in the city on a regular basis.

The other key players are Sidhharta (Saurav Das), a lawyer turned detective and solves cases with his team member Jenny (Rini), who is a witty and smart investigator.

Maya (Saayoni Ghosh) is a politician who is running for the post of MP and has dark secrets in her past that hold an important key to the story.

Tanishka (Maahi) plays the role of a hospital admin and incidentally is Sukumar’s sister in law. Two important child characters are played by Satyaki and Debkonya. Among other intriguing cast members, there are Rajdeep Sarkar as Faiz khan and Shirshha.

Talking about the poster look, director Saptaswa Basu said, "Pratidwandi is a story about how the city, as well as the ones residing in it, becomes the competitors of all the characters. The characters are grey in shade and are in conflict with each other.

"The music also has been contemporary, keeping in sync with the backdrop of the story by Raz Dee and Pratik Kundu."
