OTT Ritabhari Chakraborty set for her web debut with 'Nandini', first look unveiled
Kolkata/IBNS: Actress Ritabhari Chakraborty, whose last theatrical release 'Fatafati' was a major hit, has plunged into the web world, courtesy Addatimes' upcoming web show 'Nandini'.
'Nandini'- directed by Falak Mir- is a story about a woman named Snigdha (played by Ritabhari Chakraborty) who gets pregnant which brings a lot of joy to her. Happiness blooms in the air and in every corner of the mansion as the descendant of the family is about to arrive.
But Snigdha’s world turns upside down when her doctor finds out that the child in her womb is going to die very soon and as a result she needs to abort the child.
Speaking on the show, Ritabhari said, "'Nandini' is a story that’s worth telling. I am pretty sure that every mother can relate to Nandini as the struggle they go through is somewhere similar for their child and themselves.
"I am very excited for my web debut. I have given everything. It has been a very challenging role for me as I was playing the role of a pregnant woman. I tried to learn, understand, absorb and portray and perform and live with that. I just hope I did justice."
Apart from Ritabhari, 'Nandini' features Debjani Chatterjee, Kinjal Nanda, Suhotra Mukhopadhyay, Sweta Bhattacharya, Sandip Bhattacharya and Alivia Sarkar in prominent roles.
Snigdha’s life revolves around her family where we will see Debjani Chatterjee playing the role of her mother in law, Sandip Bhattacharya playing the role of her father-in-law and Kinjal Nanda will play his husband.
Based on Sayantani Putatundu's novel of the same name, 'Nandini' is slated to premiere on Addatimes on October 15.
