Two prestigious event laurels for Shekhar Ghosh's "Syndicate"
Shekhar Ghosh's initially Bengali directorial 'Syndicate' has been officially selected at the prestigious 42nd Durban International Film Festival 2021 and the Lift up Off Global Network - Program 2021.
After his two previous Hindi include films 'Sooper Se Ooper' and 'Chowky' the filmmaker is currently ready for his initially Bengali film, a crime thriller.
The film has quite an ensemble cast including Shaheb Bhattacherjee, Sauraseni Maitra, Shantilal Mukherjee, Sudip Mukherjee, Chandan Sen, Prantik Banerjee, Pratiksha Sen, and others in pivotal roles.
"My primary Bengali film Syndicate is getting so much reputation at some international festivals gives me a lot of confidence to create many more Bengali movies along with my Hindi films and all of this was possible due to the amazingly talented cast and crew who worked brilliantly on the film, explained Shekhar.
Talking about the film this individual says, "My thoughts, even though I just wrote the film, was drawn by my entire life where I noticed how detached I had become from reality. Browsing a headline having said that thousands of crores have already been swindled by an individual or 36 persons were killed anywhere, held my focus for less than a minute, and then I went on with my entire life. I sensed that has become our new regular. Sad yet accurate. Motivated by this imagined, the film was conceived as a gritty fast-paced thiller with overseas Sensibilities with a strong Bengal connect."
