Plot edit
The film is a love story based on the Ghoti-Bangal theme.[2] It is a romantic drama where a couple from Siliguri, namely Gourab and Jini, fall in love and dream of spending their life together. But when it comes to convincing their concerned families, a weird thing happens. Involving Bangal-Ghoti feud, their life becomes unmanageable and miserable. Both the families send off them to Kolkata, but at different places to try to break their relationship. While moving to Kolkata, Jini prepares herself and apparently gets a job at a private concern. After this, the story has its twists.[3]
Cast edit
Cutting through the age spectrum, the music will definitely be successful in touching hearts of people in love with Bengali cinema. As I wanted to spread the magic of saga of love on the screen I consciously needed a fresh pair but not of the glitterati. Even if the hero Ritojit is a film old but this is the first film of Priyanka. But leaving their freshness behind if you consider the music it will be simply superb.
