Jaya Ahsan, a popular actress of two Bengals, is going to set foot in Bollywood. She is going to make her debut in B-Town by starring opposite famous actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui.

According to Indian media reports, Jaya and Nawazuddin are teaming up in a Hindi web series, produced by Sayantan Mukherjee. The producer wants the work of the series completed before next year's Durga Puja.

The series will be based on the novel 'Sada Ami Kalo Ami' written by Runu Guha Niyogi, a controversial police officer of the 1967 Naxalbari movement. The whole series will be shown through the eyes of the controversial police officer. Ranit Roy will be seen in the role of Runu Guha. Apart from this, initial talks have been held with Sabyasachi Chakraborty.

This series is going to be made in Bengali, Hindi and English. According to Sayantan, Nawaz will be Charu Majumdar here. Jaya will be his wife Leela Majumder.

The director said if ‘Sacred Games’ in the background of Mumbai or ‘Mirzapur’ in plot of Uttar Pradesh could be made, then why would Bengal be left behind? It is time to highlight the history of the West Bengal movement. I selected this novel from that place.

Ranit Roy, Sabyasachi Chakraborty, Shaswat Chatterjee and many others can be seen in different characters in the series. There could also be a bunch of Bollywood stars including Paresh Rawal and Boman Irani, whose names will be announced later.

The three seasons of the series will tell the story of the leftist movement around the world from 1947 to 2010.
