In an interview with Indian media, Sharman Joshi expressed his excitement about working in a Bengali film for the first time. He said:
“I’ve always been a huge admirer of Satyajit Ray. Bengali cinema has its own charm and beauty. I regularly watch Bengali films, but I never had the opportunity to be part of one until now. For this film, I’m even learning the Bengali language. It’s a completely new experience for me.”
This collaboration marks another significant step in fostering creative partnerships between Tollywood and Dhallywood. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how this diverse international cast brings their chemistry to life on the big screen.
The official release date and shooting schedule for Bhalobashar Morshum have not yet been announced. However, it is expected that filming will begin later this year, with a planned release in early 2026.
