Kacher Manush: Dev, Usha Uthup sway at Kolkata’s iconic restaurant

The new song from the film is sung by the legendary singer.

Usha Uthup and Dev

Prosenjit Chatterjee, Dev, Ishaa Saha and Susmita Chatterjee’s Kacher Manush are all set to hit the theatres this Puja. Directed by Pathikrit Basu, the trailer of the film has already been appreciated. Now, the latest song, Chumbak Mon was dropped a couple of days ago. Sung by legendary singer Usha Uthup. The song has already garnered news on Youtube. Recently, Dev and Usha Uthup were spotted at a city restaurant dancing to the song at the launch event.

The song captures the journey of togetherness of Dev and Ishaa. The actor and the actress roam around Kolkata street, enjoy an egg roll and visit all the markers of the City of Joy.

The launch event of this song was replete with music and grandeur. It was held on Friday at Trincas, Park Street, where Usha Uthup has a robust career in her jazz music. The event was attended by Dev, Ishaa, Usha Utthup and the music director Niyanal Chattopadhyay.

Evidently, Usha Uthup got nostalgic. She sang, and also did a ball dance with Dev. The actor and Ishaa both sang the songs of the movie.

Dev later said, “It is unfortunate that Ushadi’s vocal is not utilised enough by the Bengali film industry. She did not take any remuneration to sing this song. We have such a deep relationship that she told my manager that I am like her son, and she can't take money from me.”

In a banter, Usha Utthup told Dev, “I want to act in your films. I am happy with any role – be it your mom or the housemaid.” Dev immediately replied, “I will surely think of a role for Ushadi.”

Though Kacher Manush has Prasenjit Chattopadhyay in the main role, he gave the event a miss as he is not part of the song, Chumbok Mon.
