hoichoi releases trailer of Anjan Dutt's Murder in the Hills

The entire star cast including Arjun Chakrabarty, Anindita Bose, Rajdeep Gupta, Sourav Chakraborty, Sandipta Sen and Suprobhat Das along with director Anjan Dutt and music director Neel Dutt were present at the trailer launch.

Set in the backdrop of Darjeeling, the story revolves around the suspicious death of a Bengali film star of the 1990s unravelling the seedy underbelly of towns' pasts.

The trailer reveals director Anjan Dutt in a paramount role in the series. Murder In the Hills also marks his directorial debut in the digital space. 

The Queen of Hills, Darjeeling, has always played a pivotal role in most of Dutt’s work; for this series, Dutt has shot and set the story in Darjeeling and presented it darkly and mystically.

Known for his youthful form from the Bong Connection to Finally Bhalobasha, Dutt said, "Having always believed in change so OTT is a new experience. I am confident that the series will reach out to the wide global audience of hoichoi.

"At this stage of my career, I strongly believe that OTT will be a very very strong contender to theatre experience. I personally want to concentrate on this OTT experience. Looking forward to the reaction of my audience!”

With music composed by Neel Dutt and produced by SVF, Murder in the Hills will begin streaming exclusively on hoichoi from Jul 23.
