Kolkata/IBNS: The official poster of the upcoming Bengali film Phonibabu Viral was unveiled on social media on Monday.

Rooted in contemporary reality, Phonibabu Viral explores the impact of social media, everyday life, and the sudden rise of viral culture through a relatable and engaging narrative.

The newly released poster offers a clear glimpse into the film’s tone and mood, highlighting its central character and setting the stage for what promises to be a compelling story.

Directed by Raju Majumdar, the film features Subhasish Mukherjee, Roshni Bhattacharya, Kharaj Mukherjee, Kanchan Mullick in key roles.

Synopsis

The backdrop of our story is a modern-day village, where technology and mobile phones have reached every hand. Our narrative revolves around Phonibabu, a 75-year-old resident of this village, his wife Sundari, his family, and his neighbours.

The central character, Phonibabu, has remained steadfastly committed to his family throughout a life defined by struggle and various ups and downs.

Through immense hard work, he painstakingly built a home and acquired land for his loved ones. However, the irony of his current situation is that due to his age, he has become a burden to both his family and his neighbours—a harsh reality we witness frequently in today’s society.
