Directed by Pavel, ‘Kolkata Chalantika’ hit the silver screen on August 25. The film centres around the dreadly incident of Posta Bridge collapse. On 2016 one of the major flyover of Kolkata collapsed as a section of the bridge came crashing down claiming lives. The film tells the stories of people who’s lives changed after this traumatic day.
Kolkata Chalantika offers a stellar cast with Saurav Das, Ditipriya Roy, Ishaa Saha, Aparajita Adya, Rajatava Dutta, Anirban Chakraborty, Kiran Dutta and others. Produced by Shatadru Chakraborty, the film received positive reviews from audience from the very first day of release. Although the film didn’t get much shows in the first week, consecutive housefull shows are compelling hall owners to increase more shows in the second week. SVF and INOX are also increasing their show time and cinema halls.
