Commenting on the film, National Award-winning filmmaker, Kaushik Ganguly said, “Lokkhi Chhele is an important and special film for me. The story germinated in my mind when I read about the eight-limbed girl, Lakshmi Tatma, from Bihar, and accounts of other children who have fallen prey to superstitions. The film aims to address and question the blind faith that is plaguing our society at its core. Audiences and critics alike have showered a lot of love and appreciation for the film and now, I am truly excited about its digital premiere on Sony LIV. With the growing popularity and reach of OTT platforms, I couldn’t have asked for a better stage than Sony LIV for Lokkhi Chhele. It is a tale waiting to be told to a global audience, and retold to the millions whose souls we were able to touch during its long run in the threatres and international festivals.”
Produced by Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee under the banner of Windows Production, the film boasts a stellar performance by Ujaan Ganguly, Aditi Marik, Ritwika Pal, and Purab Seal Acharya in pivotal roles.
