Bodhon first look: Sandipta Sen, Ditipriya Roy to star in Hoichoi’s upcoming Puja release

Sandipta Sen and Ditipriya Roy will be starring together in Hoichoi’s upcoming Puja release Bodhon.

The series, which begins filming later this month, released the first look of their characters. The actresses, who have earlier worked together on television shows, will be sharing screen space in the web-series.

Talking about her role in the female-centric series, Sandipta Sen said, “The first thing about Bodhon that had appealed to me was its concept. The character I am playing is of Raka Sen who is a professor. The journey of Raka begins after she joins the college where she once used to study. Raka’s meeting with Shinjini, portrayed by Ditipriya, her student, plays a pivotal role in narrating a powerful tale of the two women. It is a story of empowerment that carries with it a strong message against the ordeals existing in the society.”

Sen added, “I have done my first serial with Ditipriya where she was a kid and now to see her grow up into this great performer and working with her after so many years feels amazing. It is an amazing feeling. I am very excited to be a part of such a powerful concept that Hoichoi has shaped up and I am feeling really blessed to be a part of [a] project like this.”

Roy, sharing her experience of working on the series, said, “After hearing Bodhon’s story, I really wanted to be a part of it, because this is a story that couldn’t be told enough, because sadly this is the horrific truth of our society. Working on this series will surely be a really enriching experience, taking into consideration the theme of the show and also, I’m really looking forward working with Sandipta di, which is a major plus.”
