The movie will star Bengali hero Dev who will be returning to SVF Productions after 2017 where he starred in the hit movie Amazon Obhijaan. The film will also have Anirban Bhattacharya who’s another known name in West Bengal industry.

Dhrubo Banerjee the director is extremely excited about this new venture of his – I  have been trying to rediscover the lost pride in Bengalis. People know about the Bengali renaissance but are not aware of the contribution of this man. He is completely forgotten. My film is not a biopic but a means of creating a movie based on Nagendra and the times. Every Bengali must know about him. The present generation does not know much about Sarbadhikary.
