Jio Studios and SVF announce new film 'Pokkhirajer Dim'

Kolkata/IBNS: Jio Studios and SVF on Friday announced their upcoming Bengali film, titled 'Pokkhirajer Dim', which will be directed by Soukarya Ghoshal. 

The film will go on floors in mid-September. 

About the film

Embarking upon the dreamy realm of Ghoton, a familiar figure from a previous rendezvous in "Rainbow Jelly," whose existence once revolved around food fantasy, now stands prepared to get into yet another journey of existence. 

Mahabrata Basu and Anumegha Banerjee are set to embody the characters of Ghoton and Poppins once again, while Anirban Bhattacharya and Shyamal Chakraborty will be contributing significantly to its enhanced prominence.

Entering the domain of Akashgunj, a narrative that intricately interlaces the allure of rural Bengal with mystery and bravery. This chronicle transports one to a sequestered village, wherein the heart of the woodland lies in an abandoned temple, cradling celestial enigmas within its timeworn stone.

Ghoton, an exceptional yet determined student, battles challenges at Akashgunj High School. His encounter with a mind-bending stone (Pokkhirajer Dim) from the temple sets off a chain of events involving his quirky maths teacher, Batabyal, and his friend, Poppins.

Director's note 

Director Soukarya Ghosal comments, "In 'Pokkhirajer Dim’, we've aimed to blend the essence of Bengal's rich rural tapestry with an intriguing storyline. 
"The mystical aura combined with the dynamics of our endearing characters, creates an experience that is both heartwarming and mysterious."  

The film is expected to release in 2024
