Buddhadeb Dasgupta’s forthcoming Bengali film, Ami Yasin Arr Amar Madhubala (The Voyeurs) will be shown at Toronto, London and Athens film festivals. This will be B.A.G film’s first production to be shown in the Toronto International film festival.
Ami Yasin Arr Amar Madhubala is Sameera Reddy’s second Bengali film with filmmaker Buddhadeb Dasgupta. The film also stars Prosenjit Chatterjee and Amitav Bhattacharya. Shot in urban India, this film explains how simple acts of passion can change one’s destiny in a politically charged up atmosphere.
Talking about her experience of working with Buddhadeb Dasgupta, Sameera says, “It’s been a pleasure working with dada. He was confident about me and that acted as a motivation for me, to act in a Bengali film. He announced Ami Yasin Arr Amar Madhubala at the press conference of Kaalpurush, and also declared that he will be casting me in it.” Sameera Reddy sports a deglamorise look in the film. Interestingly, a short film titled Migration starring Sameera directed by Mira Nair will also be showcased at the Toronto International Film Festival.
