A former senior officer of Assam police, Dilip Bora, who is also an author, recently announced the title of his proposed debut film. Mr Manik Roy will be the co-director of the film. The film’s title is ‘Prastabana’ and is supported by an additional English title, ‘The Preamble’. The word Prastabana means ‘Introduction’ in English. The word Preamble refers explicitly to the Preamble of a constitution, likely the Indian Constitution. This Anglo-English title immediately creates an impression of a political film.
The screenplay is by Dilip Bora himself. Anmol Raj Saikia and Bhaskar Dutta will be assistant directors. Bitul Bora will be the Director of Photography. A. Srikar Prasad will edit the film. Arnab Bora designed the sound. Golok Saha has been given the responsibility of art direction. Additionally, Suman Phukan will handle the costume design aspect of the film, and Uttam Kumar Deka will be the production controller. Satyaranjan Bhuyan and Hiteswar Roy wrote and composed two songs for the film. Tapan Das will act as the main character. Other important characters will be played by Parbi Baruah, Hillol Kumar Pathak, Ashwini Bhuyan, Abtosh Bhuyan, Kaushik Nath, RK, Simanta Raj Sharma Kandali, Antara Choudhury, Kalpana Baruah, Rashmirekha Sharma, Suraj Kalita, Mukut Nath, Reena Choudhury, Samar Bora, Nilotpal Das, Chitra Bhowmik, Siddharth Roy, and several other actors and actresses.
The filmmakers, Dilip Bora and Manik Roy, expressed their confidence that this film will provide a unique cinematic experience to Assam’s audience.
