After the remarkable success of Shri Swapankumarer Badami Hyenar Kobole and Ei Raat Tomar Amaar, Hoichoi studios is returning with yet another story—this time, featuring a character cherished by all.

Our very own Eken Babu is set to make a grand comeback on the big screen in The Eken: Benaras e Bibhishika, a thrilling mystery brimming with suspense and infused with Eken’s signature humour. 

Directed by Joydeep Mukherjee, the film features a stellar ensemble cast with Anirban Chakrabarti as Eken Babu, Suhotra Mukhopadhyay as Bapi and Somak Ghosh as Pramatha, adding their own charisma to the narrative, making it an even more captivating cinematic experience.

The mystery deepens with new faces joining the adventure.

This time, the franchise welcomes Saswata Chatterjee, Ishaa Saha, Gaurav Chakrabarty, Debesh Chattopadhyay, Rishav Basu, Biswanath Basu, Sagnik Chatterjee and Kaushik Hafizee, Sreeja Bhattacharya amongst others.

With each of them bringing their own charm and intrigue, the stakes are higher, the twists sharper, and Eken Babu’s world more thrilling than ever.

As the clan arrives in one of the world's oldest cities—Benaras—new mysteries await Eken and his companions.
