19th August 2022 - Met a sweet woman for a date. I told her I was on the date against my better judgement as there were already too many Bengalis in my life
19th August 2024 - Married that sweet Bengali woman
(Here she's mocking me about the better judgement comment)
Thanks for the pictures, @shaunak_sen and @butterchickengirl
Presenting the official poster for Shadowbox (Baksho Bondi)✨
In the quiet suburbs of Kolkata, Maya juggles multiple jobs to keep her family afloat. When her husband, a retired soldier battling PTSD, mysteriously vanishes into the night, she and her teenage son are left grasping at the edges of a life unraveling.
A gripping story of love, loss, and the quiet catastrophes that change everything.

Couldn’t be more thrilled to share that our labour of love ‘Shadowbox’ (‘Baksho Bondi’), directed by Tanushree Das @tanushree_skreenfilms and Saumyananda Sahi @somosahi , has been selected in the new Perspectives Competition at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival.
Set against the backdrop of a dusty Kolkata suburb, Shadowbox is a powerful narrative of love, resilience, and the quiet strength of a working woman - Maya.
Featuring Tillotama Shome @tillotamashome , Chandan Bisht @chandanbissht and Sayan Karmakar, the film has been in the making for eight years. We can’t wait for the film to find its audience.
