Shantilal O Projapoti Rohoshyo (transl. Shantilal and the butterfly mystery) is an Indian Bengali mystery-thriller film, directed by Pratim D. Gupta. The film starred Ritwick Chakraborty, Paoli Dam and Goutam Ghose in lead roles. It was released on 16 August 2019 under the banner of Platoon One Films.[1]
Shantilal, a deadbeat weather reporter of a Kolkata based newspaper, who is in his late 30s, still unmarried and lives with his mother. Glamorous actress Nandita now wants to venture into politics. While Shantilal is watching old porn film he finds body part of Nandita in a clipping of famous porn star of Padma Pictures, Miss Roshni. Being curious he starts investigation about the porn film production house, Padma Pictures in Chennai. Shantilal moves from Kolkata to Chennai to Singapore to find Roshni. But no one wants to speak about Padma Pictures.[2]
The screenplay of the film was selected for the 2013 Indian edition of the prestigious Sundance Lab, organised by Sundance Institute, where Pratim got to discuss and dissect his script with international writers and directors like Asif Kapadia, Bill Wheeler, Joshua Marston, Carlos Cuaron and Marti Noxon. The film was titled Ink at that time.[3]
The script was subsequently read by actor Irrfan Khan who wished to direct the film for private television channel. Pratim declined Irrfan because he wished to make the film himself.[4]
This is the fourth collaboration of Pratim and Ritwick after Shaheb Bibi Golaam, Maacher Jhol and Ahare Mon. The film also marks the fourth collaboration between the director and Paoli Dam. They have previously worked together in Maacher Jhol, Ahare Mon and the telefilm Mirchi Malini.
Shooting for the film started in Kolkata in 2018 when the premiere of the film Guptodhoner Sandhane was used by Pratim to shoot a sequence for his film.[5]
The film was released theatrically on 16 August 2019.[6]
