Kolkata | Sunday | 10th March, 2019

Summary:

The cast and crew of Bhabishyater Bhoot, a Bengali-language film, will hit the streets in Kolkata on Sunday after movie theatres stopped the film’s screening, allegedly due to a directive from the administration. Owners of single-screen movie theatres and multiplexes said they received orders from “higher authority”. Dutta had said the film festival was not about actors or directors, but about “one person” whose posters were all over the festival venues. In November last year, Dutta had taken a jibe at Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee while speaking at a seminar in Kolkata International Film Festival. AdvertisingOn February 16, a day after its release, the movie was pulled out of nearly all theatres..
