New Delhi, April 17 -- Bengali audiences have always had a special place in their hearts for films based on literature. Now, director duo Kakoli Ghosh and Avinab Mukherjee are ready to impress the audiences with their new Bengali film 'Bhutopurbo'. Inspired by the works of three iconic writers - Rabindranath Tagore, Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay and Manoj Sen - the film brings together three compelling stories connected by a thread of the paranormal.
