A moment from the film

The film Chabiwala follows two young men from a village, Bhoben and Nagen, who have lost their jobs, and arrive in the city with hope. Bhoben dreams of unlocking the heart of his beloved who now lives in the city. But once here, he realises that people in the city are constantly chasing after their own keys — keys to success, love, belonging, and more. Will they find what they’re searching for? Does anyone ever truly find their key? This film has been directed by Raja Ghosh. Chabiwala features actors such as Kaushik Kar, Amrita Chattopadhyay, Sohag Sen, Rahul Banerjee, Subhashish Mukherjee, Dhritiman Chaterji, and Shankar Debnath in important roles. Chabiwala is the story of a group of people who are entangled in each other’s lives unknowingly — a young key maker Bhaben, his lost love, the village headman’s daughter Fatima, an old key maker Nagen, a writer Amlan, a criminal lawyer Zaira and a few more characters.

"Fatima is the headman’s daughter of a village. She falls in love with a key maker, who is without any apparent high ambition in life. She gets married to another man, is shifted to a city and life happens to her. And she, absolutely alone, tries to get to the truth, and decide the course of her life all by herself this time. Most of us are very serious about life. We take everything, every situation and their outcome very seriously. While there still exist people who do not take life or themselves very seriously. And life has magical ways of rewarding them. The way both types exist in society and in our storyline is something which has fascinated me," said Amrita.

Chabiwala has already travelled to nearly 30 film festivals and is set to hit the theatres on June 6. The film is produced by Pepperpot Pixels, White Owl Entertainment, and co-produced by Dhagaa Productions. The film's lead actors and other artistes were present recently at the music and trailer launch. The film's main theme has been composed by Nabarun Bose.
