Kolkata, Nov 23 (UNI) Char Diker Golpo, a Bengali film comprising four

short stories, created by Pranabes Chandra is all set to release tomorrow

after winning several national and international awards.

The film has four short stories​ where each deals with emotions like fear,

lust, greed, love, loyalty, insecurity in the backdrop of changing circumstances.

As the name suggests the movie speaks of people from four different sects

of our society of varied mentalities and varied ways of surviving.

Char Diker Galpo consists of four separate stories told by sales executive

Nirmal Dutta on a train to an aspiring film maker Saptarshi Roy. Each of the

stories seems to have some connection to the aspiring film maker to whom

he tells them.

The first story is the life of a sculptor who earns his living from selling his

little piece of art and compromising with people who are financially bigger

than him.

The second story deals with a fisherman and his daughter who solely

survives on the visitors who come over on weekends and the behavior of the

tourists towards them and how they tackle life.

The third story talks about a “Tangawala” who has a good survival because

he is the sole means of transportation and he is always helping others in

their situations. However, people have taken him for granted which ultimately

becomes the biggest loss of his life.

The last story is about a struggling actress who gets the help of another

struggling boy in the tinsel town. Though the boy is not established himself,

still he manages to help the girl purely out of good intentions.

Director Pranabes Chandra said that while making this film, he felt that he

had encountered these characters somewhere.

He also hoped that the viewers would love and appreciate this realistic

film that he has made.

The film has been officially selected in 16 film festivals and it bagged

award in all the festivals respectively.
