Golpoboliye Tarini Khuro from Satyajit Ray’s Tarini Khuro series will be adapted in Hindi. Ananth Narayan Mahadevan will be directing the film, titled ‘The Storyteller’, reports India Today.
The film will star Paresh Rawal, Adil Hussain, Revathi and Tannishtha. As celebrations of his centenary year continue, Jio Studios has announced a Hindi project, in association with Purpose Entertainment and Quest Films.
Sharing his thoughts, Ananth Narayan Mahadevan said, “As part of the celebrations around the life and work of the legend Satyajit Ray, we are very happy and honoured to share our own humble homage to the master storyteller. The Storyteller, a timeless fable, explores the mindset of people who exploit and are exploited. Ray’s subtle treatment of the subject makes one smile at what is, in fact, a revenge story. An amalgamation of wit, drama, and even suspense, the film is an attempt to bring Ray to a generation that has only heard about him or been occasionally exposed to his collection.”
The first look of the film was revealed on May 23. Sharing the first look, the official Twitter handle of Jio Studios wrote, “Poised to evoke fresh nostalgia in Ray’s legion of fans!”
The original Bengali short story Golpoboliye Tarini Khuro is one among a series of stories written by Ray based on the enigmatic character Tarini Khuro, one of his many creations and gifts to the literary world.
