Aparna Sen’s ‘Ghawre Bairey Aaj’ To Be Premiered At International Film Festival of Kerala 2019
Aparna Sen’s ‘Ghawre Bairey Aaj’ has been selected to be premiered at International Film Festival of Kerala. The film stars Jisshu Sengupta, Anirban Bhattacharya, Tuhina Das in the lead roles. The film talks about the current socio-political situation of the nation.

SVF shared the news on Twitter, “Thrilled to announce that @senaparna 's #GhawreBaireyAaj has been selected for the International Film Festival of Kerala.  #IFFK2019.”


The original story of Ghare Baire, written by Tagore, was about the clash of the contrasting ideologies of two friends Nikhilesh and Sandip. It was also about Bimala, wife of Nikhilesh, who is torn between these two men. It is about herself awakening about her inner and outer world.

The film, which was released on November 15, is set in the backdrop of Delhi where Anirban Bhattacharya is an editor of an online news website with a liberal point of view. His wife is Tuhina Das. After her parent’s death at a very young age, she moved to Delhi to her grandmother who was a house help at the posh bungalow owned by Nikhilesh’s parents. In fact, she was brought up by Nikhilesh’s parents who not only gave her proper education but also renamed her to Brinda to make her more acceptable in the high-class society. Later she got married to much older Nikhilesh. Jisshu Sengupta is the childhood friend of Nikhilesh who was a leftist student leader during his college days but now is a right-wing nationalist leader supported by a political party with an agenda of Hinduism. There is a clash of ideologies between two friends but still, they share a good rapport. One day Jisshu comes for a work assignment in Delhi and he preferred to stay at Anirbans home. Sandip has a contradictory nature compared to Nikhilesh is more radical and active and Brinda gets easily attracted to him for this nature.
