Sheikh Arif Bulbon :
Popular actor Chanchal Chowdhury acted in a mega serial directed by noted director and actor Salauddin Lavlu’s direction after a long time. Chanchal worked in the serial titled Shonda Panda, which story is written by Brindaban Das. Director Lavlu informed that shooting of the first phase of the serial was held at Pubail in Gazipur for eight days in a row. Before acting in this serial, Chanchal in the meantime also acted under Lavlu’s direction in some single episode dramas.
While talking about making the serial Salauddin Lavlu said, “After a long time, I have been making a mega serial. Regarding necessity of the story I have gathered many senior actors for the serial. It is becoming a good work as I believe. Basically everything depends on viewers’ choice. If the viewers like, then we get inspiration to present better works for them. Chanchal is acting in this serial after a long time. He has been co-operating me from his point of view. Overall, I hope viewers are going to watch a nice mega serial soon.” Chanchal Chowdhury shared his feelings by this way, “Under Lavlu Bhai’s direction, I last acted in serial Harkipte. Later, I did not get the scope to work in any serial. However, I acted in some single episode dramas under his direction. It is fact that due to budget constraint many noted directors are not showing interest to make drama serials now. They have reduced to make dramas and serials. Lavlu Bhai is making this mega serial due to getting good budget. Meanwhile, I have full confidence on Brindaban Dada written scripts as usual. I have also confidence on Lavlu Bhai’s direction. So, some better things are waiting for the viewers. I also stopped to work in serial. I want besides OTT platform; our TV channels are stepping forward.”
Meanwhile, Chanchal has already finished shooting of Shankha Das Gupta’s web series Boli. In December, Chanchal has planned to work in Anjan Dutt’s movie in Kolkata. Chanchal acted movies Paap Punnyo and Hawa are waiting to get release dates. Serial Shonda Panda will be aired on Channel i.
