Srijit Mukherji On Inspiration Behind Killbill Society

Talking about what inspired him to make a film like Killbill Society, director Srijit Mukherji told HT that Hollywood star Angelina Jolie's real-life suicide attempt case worked as the primary idea for the Bangla sequel.

Mukherji told the daily, "All these years we were just waiting for the right plot. We did not want to make a sequel just for the sake of making a sequel to such a cult classic. We were waiting for the right plot, and on erstwhile Twitter, we came across this real-life incident involving Angelina Jolie's life where she had hired a contract killer at the age of 19 to kill herself. She wanted it to look like a suicide but also wanted to make it look like a shootout for her family. Of course, the contract killer asked her to sleep over it and she changed her mind, and the rest is history. (sic)."
