Hoichoi ropes in Puja Banerjee for Durga Puja series Paap

Paap will make Puja's debut in Bengali web series.

The show is about a powerful, independent woman who after witnessing a troubled childhood, returns to the home of her family acquaintance where she grew up. Much to her chagrin, she is greeted with hate and abuses for every terrible situation that takes place in the household while their 200-year old Durga Puja celebration goes on in the background.

Paap is about an ancient Durga Puja celebration, a family reunion, one unwanted guest, two dead bodies, a whole lot of mystery! All this happens when a stunning woman arrives in a traditional family during Durga Puja claiming herself to be one of the family acquaintances who is here to spill some long-kept secrets.

Meanwhile two dead bodies are discovered with a crushed piece of paper in their mouth and in the paper there’s a strange message. Tension arises in this family with this unwanted guest and two murders. The family gets divided on basis of mistrust and suspicion and someone from outside plays the game well. The ‘Puja House’ becomes a crime scene and lots of mysteries to unveil.

Puja Banerjee exclaimed, “When I heard the script of Paap, I simply could not say no because the concept is so intriguing. Working on such a project with a pleasure for me and as it is my first Bengali web content, I wanted it to be special. What can be more special than commemorating Durga Puja with a show? We, Bengali women, have grown up listening to stories of Goddess Durga hence playing a strong woman will help me shadow those learnings.”
