“The idea that a young boy from tiny hamlet Jalpaiguri of rural northeastern India could become a filmmaker took root in Sudipto just after finishing his final school exam. It was indeed an absurd dream considering his humble background, yet one he felt with every breath. Studying Physics in the beginning, Applied Psychology in the middle and then Film school… all these allowed him to learn and infuse courage for making cinema. It also taught him how to tell a story through a camera, replacing a pen.”
(Dr. Huriyyah Mohammad, New York based Writer / Producer / Director / Researcher)
