Koushani Mukherjee's motion poster from Raktabeej 2 unveiled
Kolkata/IBNS: Bengali actress Koushani Mukherjee's motion poster from upcoming film Raktabeej 2 was unveiled by the makers on Thursday.
Raktabeej 2 is directed by Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee.
Koushani is the new character in the Raktabeej franchise.
The poster has a reference to West Bengal and Bangladesh, raising speculations of what could be the basis of this installment.
The sequel, which features veteran actor Victor Banerjee, Abir Chatterjee and Mimi Chakraborty in the lead, was officially announced in January with a motion poster.
Victor Banerjee, Abir and Mimi are also set to reprise their roles from the first installment, which was based on the 2014 blast which took place at Khagragarh in West Bengal's Burdwan district.
In Raktabeej, which had a run in the box office for over 100 years, Victor Banerjee's character was modelled after former Indian President Pranab Mukherjee, Abir had played a probe officer and Mimi a cop.
The second installment is scheduled for a release in this year's Durga Puja.
