In his statement to the media, Kaushik Ganguly says that it was very difficult for him to direct Rituporno Ghosh because being a director himself, Rituda had his own mindset regarding a particular shot. In fact, Rituporno Ghosh’s and his directorial style is very different, says Kaushik Ganguly. Nevertheless, Rituporno Ghosh had a great respect for Kaushik Ganguly’s body of work and considering that he knew the script of ‘Arekti Premer Golpo’ better than Kaushik Ganguly, it was easy for the duo go ahead with their work!
Rituporno Ghosh plays a gay filmmaker Abhiroop Sen in ‘Arekti Premer Golpo’. His cinematographer Basu, played by Indraneil Sengupta, is a bisexual and is in love with Abhiroop. On the other hand Basu is also married. A second track of the film shows the life of Chapal Bhaduri, a theater actor who played only women’s parts and in reality feels like a woman in a man’s body. However, Chapal Bhaduri has always faced discrimination unlike Abhiroop Sen and it is his life story which becomes the subject matter for Abhiroop Sen’s latest documentary work. The film will change one’s perception towards alternative sex, promises Kaushik Ganguly.
