Rahool Mukherjee accused of violating rules, will not be able to shoot for three months

These days, one of the reigning directors in Bengali, Rahool Mukherjee, is making waves. He has been accused of flouting rules for the shooting of his upcoming film. If media reports are to be believed, federations have charged him with breaking the rules—he went abroad for the shoot.

Rahool Mukherjee is one of the rising directors of Bengali cinema. His film 'Kismis' proved to be a hit at the box office. Recently, the Federation of Cine Technicians and Workers of Eastern India (FCTWEI) accused him of violating the rules for going abroad to shoot. Young director Rahool Mukherjee has been banned by the Federation of Cine Technicians and Workers of Eastern India from making films for three months.

FCTWEI President Swarup Biswas said that Rahool Mukherjee had neither informed the Federation nor the Directors Association of Eastern India about his visit to Bangladesh to shoot his upcoming film. This is a major rule violation. If sources are to be believed, parts of Rahool's upcoming film starring Prosenjit Chatterjee, Anirban Bhattacharya, and Priyanka Sarkar were shot in the neighboring country. Biswas, while talking to the media, said, 'When we noticed Rahool Mukherjee's long absence and contacted him, he initially claimed that he had gone to Bangladesh as a tourist'.

Rahool was directing the upcoming film of the production house SVF. The name of the film has not been decided yet. If sources are to be believed, Rahool has now been fired by the production house. Now Soumik Halder will direct the film in his place. However, no official statement has come from Rahool on this matter yet. Veteran filmmaker Anjan Dutt has shared a social media post and supported Rahool and said that 'preventing a filmmaker from working is wrong, unethical and illegal'.
