“The narrative of Ektu Shore Boshun is borrowed from one of the most popular literary works of the revered Bengal writer Late Shri Balai Chand Mukhopadhyay alias Bonophul.

Ektu Shore Boshun takes us on a whimsical journey through the life of Guddu played by none other than very talented Ritwick Chakraborty, a Sanskrit graduate trapped in the quaint Bengal town of Begunbagicha, where time seems to stand still. Jobless and aimless, Guddu’s only solace is his childhood love, Piu, portrayed by Isha Saha in a town teeming with eccentric characters.
The plot thickens when, with the help of his friend Aalpin, a penny stock player with his own agenda, Guddu decides to steal the only family heirloom and escape to Kolkata. His destination: the house of his far-removed cousin Fotke Da, a success story with a cushy MNC job. Guddu’s goal is simple – to beg Fotke Da for a job opportunity.
Despite the comical shenanigans, Guddu’s pursuit of a job hits roadblocks. It is only when Fotke Da, under constant persuasion from his wife Urmi, agrees to take Guddu to his MNC that the story hurtles towards a stunning conclusion.
