Kolkata/IBNS: Jio Studios and SVF, the makers, are set to begin the filming for their upcoming Bengali project 'Pokkhirajer Dim', which will be directed by Soukarya Ghosal.

The film is planned to begin 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.

Returning to reprise their roles as Ghoton and Poppins are Mahabrata Basu and Anumegha Banerjee.

Additionally, filmmaker Anirban Bhattacharya and actor Shyamal Chakraborty will make significant contributions to the film.
