Abir, who was the lead in Hrid Majharey, a new Bengali flick inspired by Shakespearean Othello, told PTI,"Our heads bowed at the martyrs'' gallery in the jail, in pride and in awe."
"One thought which instantly comes to your mind is how blessed and fortunate we all are as our safe and secure lives were made possible by their deaths at the altar."
"There were seven galleries of Bengali freedom fighters who were sent to the gallows in Andamand and Islands. This shows the contribution of Benga;is in the freedom stir," Abir said.
With the close proximity of that place with Kolkata,more bengali films should be hot in the blue archipelago, he said.
About the hand-drawn posters of the film, the new Feluda in Badshahi Angti said, "This brings back the era of Satyajit Ray' whose hand designer film posters were an artiste's delight.
"I love his Goopey Gyne Bagha Byne posters the most for the sheer artistry," the Baishe Srabon actor, who had been paired opposite Raima in the acclaimed Srijit Mukherjee film, said.
