The film is the spin-off of the iconic character of the same name, from Sujoy Ghosh’s 2012 thriller, Kahaani. The crime-drama is set against the backdrop of a love story, and showcases the dual life led by a contract killer. It was shot in Kolkata, and also stars Chitrangda Singh in the lead role.
Debutante director Diya says, “I have had a fantastic experience designing Bob Biswas, a crime-drama that has a love-story in its essence. This film came to me in 2020, which was one of the most difficult times in all our lives. I was blessed with a fabulous set [and cast members] like Abhishek and Chitrangda, among others. With the support of my crew, we [worked against] all odds to make this film come alive.”
In November 2020, Bachchan was shooting for the film in Kolkata. Pictures from the set were leaked online and eventually went viral. The Guru actor is seen wearing glasses, along with a checked shirt and grey pants in it.
