B'desh and West Bengal film industries join hands

West Bengal

MUMBAI: The film industries of Bangladesh and West Bengal have come together in their zeal for mutual cooperation for co-production and exhibition of Bengali movies.

In the presence of Bangladesh information minister Hasanul Hoque Inu, members of the two film industries announced that a memorandum of understanding (MoU) would be signed by them in the next few days.

"We have always felt that the film industries at both places have been kept divided. If we can unite the two industries as one, then the resultant market would be a huge one," said Bengali actor-producer Prosenjit Chatterjee.

The West Bengal film industry has proposed to release all current Bengali films produced this year in Bangladesh. They also want to join hands in creating and developing cinema halls together on both sides of the border. Besides exhibition, the MoU will also harp on increasing joint venture production of films.

"Our final target is to ensure that Bengali films get releases in both places on the same day," Prosenjit said.
