I am so glad that by reading it anyone can have a clear idea on how rich the Bengali Film Industry used to be and still it holds the fame to some extent. I really hope that Mishal chooses a film that can earn him international recognition.
We know that Aishawarya, Mallika, Minisha walked on the red carpet of the Cannes film festival but i would like to proudly say that Paoli Dam (a Bengali Actress) is the only Indian actress who walked on the red carpet of recently concluded Cannes film festival as an actress, not as a brand ambassador of some international cosmetic or liquor brand. Paoli walked the red carpet as the lead actress of the film Chhatrak of Sri Lankan filmmaker Vimukthi Jayasundara. Chhatrak, a Bengali film was officially selected for screening in the Directors' Fortnight section at the 64th Cannes film festival.
May our Mishal starts with the same note.
There is one funny thing. Couple of months ago, there was a topic on which characters we want to see mishal playing. I remember i mentioned about Bengali Legendary Actor Uttam Kumar. I always dream of mIshal playing those Uttam Kumar characters. Huge personality yet soft. WOW, i wish they remake those films with Mishal...
Now, wait for the official confirmation from Mishal...then the celebration begins and i'm all ready to pour black color on COLORS 😡
