Rituparna Sengupta, Rahul Bose, Ananya Chatterjee and Koushik Sen unite in Sayantan Ghosal’s Madam Sengupta — a haunting emotional thriller where art and vengeance collide. The first song- Jete Dao sung by Shilpa Rao from the film is out.Set against the vibrant and turbulent backdrop of Kolkata, Madam Sengupta follows Anurekha Sengupta , a celebrated cartoonist, as she seeks the truth behind her daughter Ananya’s brutal murder at an university. Her investigation draws her into a shadowy world of hidden agendas, political rivalries, and familial fractures. A distinctive layer in the film is Abol Tabol — Sukumar Ray’s classic work of satirical poetry — which serves as both a motif and a mirror, reflecting the surreal absurdities and quiet tragedies Anurekha must confront. Through this lens, Madam Sengupta explores the unsettling intersection of satire, sorrow, and rebellion. Music of the film is scored by Anupam Roy while background score is by Indraadip Dasgupta.
"Though I’m known for crafting adventure and thrillers, with Madam Sengupta I wanted to explore a different terrain — an emotional thriller where the battles are fought within, where grief and love sharpen every mystery into something deeply personal. This film is not just about solving a crime; it’s about confronting the truths we bury and the resilience that emerges from loss," said Sayantan.
