The teaser of Charitraheen 2 was shown at the press meet of the upcoming Bengali web-series, Charitraheen 2.

Present at the press meet was Naina Ganguly, Saurav Das, Mumtaz Sorcar, Shweta Bhattacharya and director Debaloy Bhattacharya.

In the second season, Kironmoyee, Satish and Sabitri return after the events of the first season. A few new characters have also been introduced in this season.

Saurav Das who played Satish in the web-series said “We got great appreciation from the audience not only in Bengal but all over India. This only proves that the web-series was a great success. When we began the shoot of the second season, we were all apprehensive as there were high expectations and we were also equally excited. Debaloy has the habit of killing off characters like Game of Thrones. Hence there are new characters this time”.

Sourav Chakraborty who had been behind the camera for many a Hoichoi web-series will be seen in front of the camera for the first time. “I play a doctor named Abhay. Director Debaloy Bhattacharya and I used to discuss about films and now this time he considered me as a part of this project. The songs of the web-series and the series itself gained immense popularity. So I was a bit sceptical as to how I will pull off the character assigned to me” said the actor.

Naina plays Kironmoyee in the series. “When we shot for the first season, we never thought that it will get so much popularity. But the success ensured that my work was noticed and I landed with some good projects. The second season has an interesting story line and great acting. So we hope that the audiences will like this season too” said the actress.

The actress has completed a Telegu film recently which will release in June. The character is sports oriented one. She will also be seen opposite Shashi Kumar in a Tamil film. The film is on salsa dance. She also has a film with Bollywood director Ram Gopal Varma in her kitty.

Mumtaz Sorcar who will be making her debut in the web-series domain with Charitraheen 2 was ecstatic to be a part of this popular web-series. She plays the role of Nirupama, the wife of Abhay. The actress was bowled over by the story when she first heard it. “I have always loved to play challenging roles.

And Nirupama has been the most challenging role that I have played till date. Not only the director but also my co-stars have helped me immensely in portraying the character. I believe acting is a team work and I have received great help from my team” said Mumtaz.

The new web-series will be streaming from 21st June exclusively on Hoichoi.
