Mumbai, Feb 21 (NationPress) Director Suman Ghosh has officially wrapped up the filming of his upcoming drama titled "Familywala". To mark this milestone, he took a moment to express his feelings about his lead actor, Shiboprosad Mukherjee, in a touching message.
He praised Shiboprosad, describing their collaboration as a “deadly combination.”
Suman shared images from both the first and last days of the shoot, reflecting on their shared journey. He stated, “The two photos represent the beginning and conclusion of our shoot for Familywala. They encapsulate our director-actor dynamic. As Shibu aptly puts it, ‘A deadly combination.’”
The director revealed that his appreciation for Shiboprosad spans over many years. “From the moment I saw Rituparno Ghosh’s Bariwali, where Shibu had a minor role, I was captivated by him,” Suman shared.
Describing the experience as “an absolute delight,” Suman remarked, “I continually encouraged him as an actor to explore his limits—it felt like a playful challenge between us.

“Ultimately, it’s up to the audience to decide. I hope everyone enjoys our work in Familywala,” he concluded.
