Amitabh Bachchan affectionately called the Tollywood superstar ‘Bumba’ and expressed his support by writing, “BUMBA .. as always my wishes for you .. Releasing .. this year Durga Puja .. directed by Srijit Mukherjee.” This gesture was particularly meaningful to Prosenjit, who conveyed his deep gratitude, acknowledging the dedication and hard work of the entire team in creating this Pujo film under Srijit’s expert direction. He highlighted the significance of Amitabh Bachchan’s legacy in Indian cinema, elevating the excitement of this year’s Pujo celebrations.
Jisshu U Sengupta, who will be seen in a multilayered negative role in the film, shared his joy at Amitabh Bachchan’s endorsement, emphasizing how special it feels when a stalwart like Sr. Bachchan appreciates your work. Srijit Mukherjee, the director, also shared Bachchan’s post and expressed his elation, declaring that the day was made.
Srijit Mukherjee’s inspiration for ‘Dawshom Awbotaar’ came while he was making his previous thriller ‘Dwitiyo Purush’. Prosenjit Chatterjee’s inquiry about the absence of his character, Probir Roychowdhury, from ‘Dwitiyo Purush’ sparked the idea. Given the fate of Probir Roychowdhury in ‘Baishe Srabon’, a sequel was not possible, making way for a prequel. Srijit seized the opportunity to merge the worlds of Probir Roychowdhury and Bijoy Poddar, leading to the first cop universe film in Bengal. This innovative concept was born from his love for cop universe films and the excitement of uniting these two iconic characters.
‘Dawshom Awbotaar’ promises to be a thrilling addition to Srijit Mukherjee’s repertoire, with the support and well-wishes of Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan adding to the anticipation of its release during Durga Puja.
