Chowdhury is a popular name in the Bengali film industry and has bagged an important role in Bhandarkar's "Indu Sarkar", a press release issued here said.
The 40-year-old Bengali filmstar has worked in Hindi films earlier too.
The actor, who has been a part of films like "Chokher Bali" (he was opposite Aishwarya Rai Bachchan), "Te3n", Sujoy Ghosh's short film "Ahalya" and upcoming "Kahaani 2", will play actress Kirti Kulhari's husband in the Hindi film.
"Indu Sarkar" is about a stammering poetess who rebels against the system.
The film has Delhi as backdrop and will be shot in the national capital, Mumbai and Pune. To be shot in 35-40 days, the movie will go on floors in the first week of December.
