It is remake of Bengali movie rajkahini
Its remake of Bengali movie rajkahini released in 2015 .the character vidya is playing was portrayed by rituporna sengupta
Thats a remake of Bengali acclaimed movie Rajkahini directed by Srijit Mukherjee. He is one of the few acclaimed director of India. Bengali film was a gem.
You see Naseeruddin shah, you see Rajat Kapoor and
Then,
You suddenly see this name
‘Chunky pandey’???
Rajkahini Was Super Hit even With A Certificate & Women Centric But Content Proved King & become Super Hit But Yes Promotional Campaign was Very Aggressive & Trailer Got Overwhelming Response & Then It Opened well Due to Srijit Mukherjee’s Name Hope Begum Jaan Will Prove Much Better Than Rajkahini & Vidya will Play well The Character of Begum Jaan Which Rituparna Sengupta Played Tremendously……………….
Hope Srijit Mukherjee will Give us Another Gem In The Name of Zulfikar this Durga Puja Before Begum Jaan…………….
My life sucks.
