Jaya Ahsan, the acclaimed actress from Two Bangla, has a special request for her fans Friday as the movie 'Manikbabur Megh' hits theatres. In a heartfelt video message on social media, she passionately advocates for experiencing this extraordinary cinematic moment. "If you skip it, you'll miss out," she warns.
The movie premiered at the Dhaka International Film Festival earlier this year, where Jaya herself first saw it and was deeply moved.
Her endorsement comes from genuine admiration: "I can confidently say, it's a wonderful and unprecedented experience. Don't miss it."
Set in bustling Kolkata, 'Manikbabur Megh' follows the story of Manik Babu, who, after his father's death, faces eviction from his home with only an alarm clock to his name. Amidst the turmoil, a transformative encounter promises to change his life forever. The film explores themes of love, questioning whether it originates from man or nature.
Having already earned accolades such as the NETPAC Award for Best Asian Film at the Kolkata International Film Festival and a Best Male Actor award for Chandan Sen at the Pacific Meridian Film Festival in Russia, 'Manikbabur Megh' promises not just a compelling narrative but also stellar performances.
Produced by Bauddhayan Mukherji and Monalisa Mukherjee, with music by Subhajit Mukherjee, the film's release in India today marks a significant moment in Bangla cinema. Jaya's plea to her fans is clear: for those seeking quality content, 'Manikbabur Megh' is a must-watch.
