Paran Bandopadhyay, Amlan Majumder, Subhasis Mukherjee, Sumit Samaddar, Lama Halder, Kanchana Moitra, Biswajit Chakraborty and Parthasarathy Deb star in the new film Nonte Phonte directed by Anirban Chakraborty. The story is set in the villages of Hiraganj and Motiganj where the people are tired of the shenanigans of Nonte and Phonte and the families are compelled to send them to a hostel run by another hilarious character called Haati Sir. In the hostel too, the duo continue with their frivolity and pranks. And in the process, they also end up catching a slimy petty thief Kankra, who happens to be a member of the infamous Dragon gang.

Back in the hostel, Keltuda the school monitor turns out to be Nonte and Phonte’s nemesis. The story moves on to the intriguing and hilarious narrative of catching a tiger on the prowl and all hell breaks loose. On their way back from the jungle in a public bus, all the passengers get kidnapped by a forgetful criminal duo played by Sumit Samaddar and Dipankar.

Jalan International Films, a well-known name in the world of Bengali films, has produced the film. “I have acted in several films and written screenplays for several more. But this film will remain a truly cherished and valued memory. While structuring the screenplay, it was a privilege being handed over about 800 comics of his, by the legend Narayan Debnath. Some of which were unpublished too. This was my first experience of acting and scriptwriting for a children’s comics-based film. It was a super experience working together with accomplished actors,” said Amlan.
