RRKPK-actor Tota Roy Chowdhury to team up with Saurav Das and Srijla Guha

Tota Roy Chowdhury’s stellar performance in Karan Johar’s latest offering Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani impressed the viewers and critics alike. Besides his acting, it is his kathak dance move that has flaunted his talent as a performer. It is for sure that the actor never stops to play a significant role – be it in Bollywood, or the South and Bengali industry. However, he is not often seen talking about his projects. 

According to a report by Aajkal Dot In, Tota will not be seen in a series by Biye Bibhrat-director Raja Chanda. The name of the series is reported to be Picasso and it will also feature Saurav Das and television actress, Srijla Guha of Mon Phagun-fame. 

Tota will reportedly play the character of an artist in the series. He will also be seen in Ayan Chakraborty’s upcoming series, Nikhonj, with Swastika Mukherjee. The actor will be seen as a journalist in the series. 

Meanwhile, according to Saurav, the actor-duo will portray characters of painters. Saurav said, “It’s a painter’s tale.” He hints at the intriguing plot surrounding Tota’s character and emphasises his importance in the series. Srijla, playing the role of a journalist, echoed a similar sentiment. “I’m an immensely mysterious character myself. I love unraveling mysteries around me. Tota will be enveloped in mysteries. The series will reveal who is accused,” she said. 

The script of the series Picasso is penned by Arnav, with Raja in the director’s chair. It will be produced by Raja Films Production. Several scenes have been shot in a house in North Kolkata, with additional locations around the city. The shooting has concluded in just 12 days. 

According to Srijla, “No extra makeup or fancy costumes were required. Rajada had clearly instructed us to stay natural. So, I acted without any heavy makeup.” Tota’s acting part has already been completed, while Saurav and Srijla have a few more days of shooting remaining.
