Trailer of Bengali film Mon Potongo out now

| @indiablooms | 09 Nov 2024, 04:11 pm

After a prolonged wait, the trailer of Mon Potongo (mind flies) has been released through a unique grand event by the makers.

The Aurora Film Corporation presented and Anjan Bose produced film is written and directed by national award winning director duo Rajdeep Paul and Sarmistha Maiti.

After its  world premiere in Kolkata International Film Festival and getting the Golden Royal Bengal Tiger Award for Best Bengali film in the festival, the film has already traveled in numerous notable international festivals and is scheduled to release on December 13, 2024 in the big screens.

On the other hand the director duo said, "The desire that echoes in the streets of Kolkata, that almost haunts the elites and pavement dwellers equally, that makes them opportunists, immoral and overjoyed achievers at the same time, is the soul of our film. Mon Potongo is about that burning desire only.

"We have released the trailer and hope to get immense love from the audience who likes to see realistic stories told in an out and out commercial manner."

About the film

A madly-in-love Hindu girl and Muslim boy flee persecution in their village and begin a new life in the city, compelled to live on the open pavements like countless migrants. But their minds are captivated by a throne-like armchair in an exquisite showroom right beside their settlement on which they dream to sit together one day as king and queen.

Barred from even stepping inside the showroom because of their social status, they make a promise to gift each other that seat of power as a token of their love. Leading harsh lives as a van puller and a housemaid they stake everything to attain their seemingly impossible dream.

Tempted by wealth, intellectualism and power they venture into the extremes of the society from the depths of its dark criminal underbelly to the heights of its bright elite upper crust. Unfazed by socio-political unrest, religious disharmony, rampant misinformation spreading on social media and rising threat of displacement of the dispossessed, their minds fly on wings of desire like moths drawn to fire.
