The poster and trailer launch of the upcoming Bengali film Surjo Prithibir Chardike Ghore took place in the presence of the cast and crew of the film.

The story of the film is about TC Paul who for the last forty years has written the words- The Sun goes around the Earth on the walls of the city. He was once an employee in the army. TC Paul thought that he has found a proof that will lay to rest the debate that no longer existed. He lives a life like a poor man. He meets Chirantan Chatterjee, the star of Bengali cinema by chance. What happens next?

The film is directed by Arijit Biswas and the film is produced by Pawan Kanodia.

The cast of the film consists of Chiranjeet Chakraborty, Kabir Suman, Anjan Dutt, Paran Bandyopadhyay, Meghnad Bhattacharya, Pallabi Chatterjee, Sreela Majumdar, Suchandra Vaaniya and others.

Sreela Majumdar plays the role of the wife of TC Pal in the film. The actress said that underdog stories are always liked by the audience. And to tell a story about a real individual takes a lot of gut and the director have shown that.

The event also saw the celebration of Pallabi Chatterjee’s birthday.

Speaking at the event, Arijit Biswas said “I first heard a story from Paramita where TC Paul had a small role. It is then that I realized that this individual’s life can be made into a full length film. It was a tedious journey from then onward but winning the prize at KIFF 2018 was a great boost to the morale of the team”.

The music of the film has been composed by Prabuddha Banerjee and the lyrics are by Upali Chattopadhyay.

The story of the film is by Arijit Biswas and Paramita Munsi.
