The first posters of the upcoming Bengali film Pratidwandi took place in the presence of the director Saptaswa Basu, Rudranil Ghosh, Saswata Chatterjee, Saayoni Ghosh, Saurav Das, and others.

The event took place at the Oxford Bookstore, Kolkata.

The film is about Sukumar Sen (Rudranil Ghosh) who is a Mathematics teacher. He has a rivalry with Dr, Bakshi (Saswata Chatterjee). Murders start happening in the city regularly. Dr. Bakshi seeks the help of Siddharta and his team of private investigators when his son gets kidnapped from school. While investigating, the team finds out that the kidnapping is connected to a series of recent murders in Kolkata. A maths teacher, Sukumar Sen (Rudranil Ghosh) appears to have a grudge and rivalry with Dr. Bakshi. So, is this maths teacher behind these crimes? What is the reason for this enmity?

Speaking at the poster launch, Saswata Chatterjee said “Since this is a thriller, it is not wise to say much about the film. All I can say is that the audience will enjoy watching the film as much we enjoyed shooting the film”.

Saayoni Ghosh highlighted the fact that if people can take precautions and go to restaurants for having food, then they can also go to the halls to watch the film too. The hall authorities are taking the necessary precautions and hence one can be assured that their safety will not be compromised.

Saurav Das mentioned that Rudranil Ghosh was his mentor. He said “To share the same frame with Rudranil Ghosh and Saswata Chatterjee was a dream come true for me. I was so happy that I got the chance to work with these talented actors. I actually had to make myself prepared every day before I came to the shoot. Or else I would have been in awe of them and would not have been able to act”.

The film is eyeing for release on Christmas.
