Debutant
director,
Diya
Annapurna
Ghosh
said
,
"I
have
had
the
most
fantastic
experience
designing
Bob
Biswas,
a
crime-drama
that
has
a
love-story
in
its
essence.
This
film
came
to
me
in
2020
which
was
one
of
the
most
difficult
times
in
all
of
our
lives.
I
was
blessed
with
a
fabulous
set
of
actors
like
Abhishek
and
Chitrangda
amongst
others
who
have
given
it
their
all.
With
the
support
of
my
whole
crew,
Red
Chillies
Entertainment
and
Boundscript,
we
culminated
amidst
all
odds
to
make
Bob
Biswas
happen
&
I'm
very
grateful
to
them".
Gaurav
Verma,
Producer
&
COO
Red
Chillies
Entertainment
said
,
"We
endeavour
to
tell
engaging
stories
across
all
platforms
and
back
fresh
talent;
Bob
Biswas
is
another
step
in
that
direction.
It's
a
unique
film,
a
character
spin-off,
something
we
have
never
attempted
before.
It
was
exciting
to
work
with
Diya,
who
has
transformed
into
a
director
with
a
lot
of
promise
in
her
very
first
film.
Together
with
producing
partner
Sujoy
Ghosh,
we
are
excited
to
bring
'Bob
Biswas'
to
the
viewers
through
ZEE5".
Sujoy
Ghosh
from
Boundscript,
co-producer
and
writer
said
,
"This
is
a
new
'Bob
Biswas',
he
is
like
any
of
us.
In
life
we
all
have
various
roles
to
play,
whether
as
a
parent,
spouse
or
a
friend
and
in
each
role
we
are
equally
responsible
and
accountable.
This
is
the
world
of
Bob,
where
he
is
trying
to
cope
with
each
role
as
his
life
unfolds
before
him.
Creating
this
world
and
Bob
was
super
exciting
and
having
Abhishek
onboard
has
made
the
film
even
cooler.
I
genuinely
hope
that
the
audience
enjoys
what
they
see".
