Indraadip Dasgupta’s directorial debut ‘
Kedara
’ is a hit among the audience and critics alike after its
Kolkata International Film Festival
screening. Indraadip is also showered with congratulatory messages from his co-workers in the Bengali film industry. Ahead of its theatrical release next year, the eminent music composer turned filmmaker received all that he wanted, a big opening in a city film fiesta.
Kaushik Ganguly who plays one of the central characters in the film is all praise for Indraadip. Being an award winning director himself, he said we all know about Dasgupta’s oeuvre as a music composer but the audience will be moved to witness his depth as a filmmaker. Ruranil Ghosh also plays a key role in the film.
While speaking about his experience of acting in ‘Kedara’, Kaushik Ganguly admitted it’s really challenging to play a key role in a movie that’s largely dependent on the main cast’s performance and where there are so many things to convey ‘between the lines’.
"The whole film has two most important characters, mine and Rudra’s (
Rudranil Ghosh). And you would find plenty of voices. Not every actor gets this chance to work on such voice modulations in a film. Shooting for the film seemed attending a workshop for me. I even requested Indraadip Dasgupta to give me the opportunity to perform all the caricatures while playing a ventriloquist. I had to challenge myself as an actor,” said the ‘Drishtikone’ director.
