Mumbai, October 2024: Dibyendu Bhattacharya, known for his roles in films like Black Friday, Dev.D, Goal, and series such as Sacred Games and Jamtara, recently wrapped up shooting for his upcoming film Gulabi, alongside his friend and co-star Huma Qureshi. The two had previously worked together on the streaming show Maharani.

Speaking to IANS, Dibyendu expressed his joy at completing the film, saying, “I am extremely glad and happy to wrap this film and we shot for a couple of months. We started shooting in the month of April, and we've shot this film in Gujarat and in Mumbai. Working with Huma is always fun, we have a long association so we really gel well and are like buddies.”

He also mentioned their deep bond, adding, “We worked with each other on Maharani. There’s friendship, mutual respect, and understanding. She's an amazing actor. Then we also have Monica Panwar in the team who is my junior from the National School of Drama, and I have worked with her in Jamtara as well.”

Directed by Vipul Mehta, Gulabi was announced on International Women’s Day. The film, inspired by a true story, follows a courageous auto-rickshaw driver who became a symbol of change, encouraging women to reclaim their destinies.

Reflecting on his habits during shoots, Dibyendu told YouTube channel Digital Commentary, “I always collect souvenirs from film sets. If I’m shooting for a film and my character smokes a pipe, I would request the makers humbly if I could keep that pipe as a souvenir. If my character uses a zippo lighter in a film or a series, I would request the producers to allow me to keep the lighter.”

Over the years, Dibyendu has made a name for himself as a reliable and versatile actor, consistently winning the trust of producers and directors alike.
