Shaheb Bhattacharjee: Small nuances make characters closer to life

Shaheb Bhattacherjee plays one of the leads in director Shekhar Ghosh’s next film 'Syndicate' which also stars, Sauraseni Maitra, Shantilal Mukherjee, Sudip Mukherjee, Chandan Sen, Prantik Banerjee, and others in pivotal roles. Although the director doesn’t want to divulge anything about the storyline he assures it’s a gritty fast-paced thriller with a strong Bengal connect.
Shaheb is also super excited to be a part of the film and assures his look in the film is something to look forward to.
“My character Biplab is an army intelligence officer posted on the borders to gather intelligence. He falls in a crisis situation where he is going in for the next big project from the army but his girlfriend Pakhi goes missing. He suspects something terribly wrong has happened to her. Biplab is very smart, no-nonsense. Small nuances make characters closer to life, and I feel we have managed to do that in the film,” shares the actor during an exclusive chat with ETimes.
Shaheb also adds there will also be a lot of action in the film. “This is a part of my acting career I have not explored much. I have done small bits of action here and there. But this film required a lot of hardcore action and fighting. I was looking forward to this. Shekharda gave me the look also, made me look rugged and rough. Every detail was kept in mind from the beginning,” said the actor adding that the film has been shot in and around Kolkata, Mahishadal, Haldia and its adjacent areas.
