I wanted to do a murder mystery. Instead of creating another detective, I decided to make it more unique.
After having ideating we decided not to focus on a touristic side of Darjeeling but on areas never usually seen. The grimy, gritty, backstreets, alleys, lanes, bazar, localities never seen before... the lived in spaces," says Anjan Dutt while sharing a peek into the plot.
The thriller is about a suspicious death of a Bengali film star of the '90s that exposes the underbelly of Darjeeling's past. Arjun who will be seen as an investigative journalist in this thriller says it's extremely dark story filled with very complex characters, who are all contemporary and young. Anjan's last film 'Shaheber Cutlet' was a musical one that released during Puja last year. It also had Arjun in the lead.

The story revolves around a couple, Khilat a software engineer and Joyee, who go through various challenges and turmoil due to an unexpected turn of events. It shows how they overcome the challenges through scientific methods. This is the first time he will be working with Srijit.
