When Sharmila Tagore’s gracious face inspired the story of an entire script, can you guess the film?

After a 14-year break, Sharmila Tagore is set to return to Bengali cinema with Suman Ghosh’s “Puraton,” co-starring Rituparna Sengupta and Indraneil Sengupta. The film explores a mother-daughter relationship. Suman, inspired by Sharmila’s elegance, approached her about the role during an event in California. Sharmila, after reading the script in Kolkata, praised it for its poetic essence. Production for “Puraton” begins in December.
