The promotional video portrays incidents that occurred during communal tension pervading through our nation and specifically Bengal through an engaging narrative, impactful dialogues and heart wrenching visuals. It is simply mind-boggling how much they have left behind too.
“Since I am Bengali myself I deeply connected with this story because it reminds me so much about what my own family went through,” said Raima Sen. “But despite being Bengali I knew nothing about it until now when this movie came into my hands so I felt it was a moral obligation for me to tell what happened during that day.”
