‘Rajkahini’—a full length Indian Bangla feature film, starring talented Bangladeshi actress Joya Ahsan in a lead role, is set to release on October 16 in Kolkata. Directed by Srijit Mukherji and produced by Shree Venkatesh Films of Kolkata, the film has an ensemble cast containing eleven major female characters. The film has been produced based on a historic plot about the partition of Bengal. In 1947 August, the British passed a bill regarding the partition of Bengal. The movie primarily revolves around a Zamindar house in Rajshahi district of Bengal. The partition border would run through the middle of the house and how the residents of the house defend their freedom. Joe said about working in the film, “Though I worked in several Kolkata films earlier, this is for the first time that I got an opportunity to work in any of Srijit Mukherji’s films. It is really a matter of good luck for an artiste to work with such a brilliant director like him.” Apart from Joya—who will be seen playing as Rubina, popular actress Rituparna Sengupta of Kolkata, among others, acted in the film. To note, DhakaLive has news that Joya Ahsan is currently passing a busy time in Kolkata as she is participating on different TV channels for the promotion of the film there.
