Jha, who has previously featured the works of Bulleh Shah in his LGBTQiA+ film, Hum Bhi Akele, Tum Bhi Akele, says of the upcoming action thriller, Lakadbaggha, “It was a conscious effort to include the works of these masters into the stories we weave. It is our responsibility as artistes to do so. Tagore is a hero for me, and Purano is my favourite [verse]. We got Shruti Pathak to sing it. It is her first Bengali song.”


Victor Mukherjee’s directorial venture also stars Ridhi Dogra, along with Soman. Jha plays the protagonist.
