September 14, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Durga Puja is the biggest festival for Bengalis all over the world. With the Durga Puja right around the corner, Bengali superstar Prosenjit has taken it upon himself to promote Bengali films. Prosenjit says that using the pujas as a platform to promote Bengali films has never been utilized in the truest sense of the term. It seems that the mega star is going promote his upcoming Bengali films at the Puja Pandals.
Prosenjit's upcoming movie will be released on October 14 this year. The actor says, "I want to target the Bengali audience which lives beyond West Bengal. The idea is to make them believe that good Bengali films are now being made and they should watch them." The actor wants to appeal to the Bengalis all over the world to watch the good Bengali films that are churned out by passionate film makers.
The veteran actor claimed, "Tollywood is now going through resurgence and we need to do our bit to support and increase its viewership." It has been eight years since Prosenjit has inaugurated Pujas but this time he wants to take up more such offers so that he can promote Bengali films. During the Pujas, the actor will travel to Bangalore, Pune, Delhi and Lucknow to inaugurate Pujas.
Let us hope Prosenjit's campaigning helps win some audience for the starving Bengali film industry.
