Director Suman Ghosh has announced his new film #MiAmor (My
Love) featuring
Parambrata Chatterjee and Raima Sen in the lead roles. It will
be first Bengali movie to have only online release, it will not have any
theatrical release. According to the director he wants to make this film for
Non residential Bengalis who want to see good quality Bengali movies but could
not see it because of the limited theatrical release of Bengali movies. As a
result they have to depend on poor quality pirated prints only.
Earlier many directors including Sujoy Ghosh and Aniruddha
RoyChoudhury has made short films like #Ahalya and #Devi which had only online
release, Suman Ghosh has taken this concept a bit further with the idea of
releasing a full length Bengali movie on website.
It will be a romantic story of two Bengalis living in Miami
and it will have 70:30 ratio of English and Bengali dialogues. Earlier Anjan
Dutta had done something quite similar in #TheBongConnection which was about
Non residential Bengalis living abroad and had Bengali sentiments with English dialogues.
The shooting of the movie has begun in Miami. Now let’s wait
and watch to see the outcome of this experiment. We wish it will be well received
by the global audience as well as by Indian Bengalis too.
