After the web film, The Sholay Girl, Chandan Roy Sanyal is set to feature as an environment-conscious auto-rickshaw driver in Sony Liv's digital series, Hawa Badle Hassu. Talking of playing the titular role of Hassu, Sanyal says, "This driver is different from the rest. He is more educated, and has interesting stories to narrate."

Likening his offering to Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver, which sees leading man Robert De Niro, a mentally unstable veteran as a night-time taxi driver in New York, he says, "He crosses over to the dark side after hearing the conversations in his back seat. But here, my character tries to change people's mindset, and opinions on the environment."
