Trailer of Prosenjit Chatterjee-Rituparna Sengupta's Ajogya releases
Kolkata/IBNS: The trailer of Tollywood superstars Prosenjit Chatterjee and Rituparna Sengupta starrer Bengali film Ajogya was unveiled by the makers on Saturday.
The film, which is directed by Kaushik Ganguly, marks Prosenjit-Rituparna's 50th film together.
The story revolves around Raktim Majumdar, once an ordinary banker, is now a broken stay-at-home dad, desperately seeking work. Raktim's wife, Parna, is forced to step out in this crisis, and lands a job at an investment firm. All was well, until Raktim's confidante Prosen walks into their lives.
Prosenjit, who plays Prosen in the film, said, "Working with Kaushik Ganguly as the director is, in my opinion, a pleasure for every performer. Additionally, it's my third consecutive movie with Kaushik Ganguly and Surinder Films. Jyeshthoputro was a highly acclaimed film and a superhit, as was Drishtikone.
"It will be the third, and the most memorable since Ritu and I will be celebrating our 50th film together. It only takes place when the viewers express a desire to see us together on screen. It has been the same for years."
Rituparna, who plays Parna, said, "I'm really grateful. God has been incredibly gracious to us; the audience has shown us so much affection over the years. Without the sincere love, demand, and support from our viewers, it would not have been feasible.
"They have my sincere gratitude and debt. Working with a filmmaker like Kaushik Ganguly is a great blessing for me. Dealing with him is a real pleasure. Even though he had a lot on his plate and had a lot of responsibilities for the picture, he never stopped smiling."
Kaushik Ganguly shares, "I've researched a lot, and at least I couldn’t find two actors in the history of Bengali cinema to have completed 50 movies as a pair. Rituparna and Prosenjit have never appeared in a love story like this one before.
"They’ve appeared in stories depicting extramarital love affairs, a stereotypical relationship, and a story of a married couple before, but not like the one in Ajogyo. It’s out of the box and does justice to both their maturity and experience. They’re making history with Ajogyo."
The music of the film will be helmed by Anupam Roy, Indraadip Dasgupta, Ranajoy Bhattacharjee.
Produced by Surinder Films, Ajogya is slated to release on June 7.
