Eela: Kajol's upcoming film with director Pradeep Sarkar all set to release on 14 September
Kajol will essay the role of a single mother who aspires to be a singer in Pradeep Sarkar's upcoming film.
Ad filmmaker-turned-director Pradeep Sarkar is known for making intense social dramas with strong women protagonists. His debut film Parineeta (2005) starring Vidya Balan, Sanjay Dutt and Saif Ali Khan received worldwide acclaim and was a major box-office success. Then came Laaga Chunari Mein Daag (2007), Lafangey Parindey (2010) and Mardaani (2014) — all revolved around independent female characters.
His upcoming film, tentatively titled Eela, stars Kajol and Riddhi Sen (winner of the Best Actor award at the 65th National Film Awards for the Bengali film Nagar Kirtan). Neha Dhupia also plays a pivotal part in the film. Eela is slated to release on 14 September, 2018.
The film will feature Kajol as a single mother who aspires to be a singer. Sen essays the role of Kajol's son in the film.
