22nd March, 2024: Addatimes reveals the first look of its new psychological drama series Basanta Eshe Gyachhe starring Swastika Dutta, Dona Saha and Arpan Ghosal.
The look gives us a sneak peak into the life of the characters, a student played by Sakshi Saha, a teacher played by Arpan Ghoshal and his wife played by Swastika Dutta.
Basanta Ese Gyachhe revolves around three different people trapped in the game of love. Tiyasha played by Sakshi Saha a teenager engineering student lives her life on her own terms. She is madly in love with her Maths Coaching Tutor Nishan played by Arpan Ghoshal who is much older than him. Nishan is a happily married man who is madly in love with his wife Chandrima played by Swastika Dutta. Their life changes as Nishan receives an anonymous love letter sent by Tiyasha.
“The main challenge while we were developping Basanta Ese Geche, was to think like a teenager of this generation, even while writing the script I was constantly challenged to how a 19 years girl of today will think, act and feel, which is quite different from our generation. But the fun part of writing this project was to play with two exact opposite emotions, the innocent, gen Alpha, modern way of love as well as the mature old school love, both intertwined in the plot. I played with colors much before holi, since every episode has a name with color & the story goes along with that exact color. It was like I went through a roller coaster of emotions & I am happy how things turned out.” said writer Sudeep Das whose last project was Preme Pora Baron.
“I am glad that I am collaborating with Addatimes again. Basanta Ese Gyachhe is a complex love story which has a lot of shades to each character.” adds director Abhimanyu Mukherjee.
Sensational Arpan Ghoshal who has won the heart of the audience with his presence in television and is all set to work in the series says “Working on “Basanta Eshe Geche” has been an enriching experience. Exploring the complexities of relationships and the search for one’s true self amidst ambiguity has challenged me as an actor. The director’s approach is refreshing, allowing for deep character development and exploration of human psychology. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be part of such an intriguing project and thrilled with Addatimes’ commitment to such thought-provoking content. It’s been an enriching journey, and I’m excited to share this compelling story with audiences.”
“This is my firsy collaboration with Addatimes. Though I play a character of a housewife which I have already played over the years in various medium but Chandrima’s character in the series is quite complex and I feel in my career of 11 years, it is one of the most difficult characters I’ve played. I hope I will be able to do justice to the character.” says Swastika Dutta.
“Playing a 19 years old girl is quite fun and exciting. It came to me very naturally as I have already passed this age. I am very much loving it as through the character I’m reliving the age again.“ adds Sakshi Saha
Directed by Abhimanyu Mukherjee, written by Sudeep Das and music by Savvy, Basanta Ese Gyachhe is slated to release on 1st of May.
