Film producer Shiladitya Bora is making his Odia cinema debut with Bindusagar, a family drama directed by Abhishek Swain and starring Prakruti Mishra and Dipanwit Dashmohapatra. Set between Bhubaneswar and London, the film weaves together themes of love, tradition, and finding your place in the world. Bora's big goal? To help Odia films reach a global audience.

TL;DR

'Bindusagar' weaves universal themes of love and tradition

Bindusagar drops this December and also features Robin Das and Satya Ranjan. The story follows a woman searching for her roots and a father rediscovering faith—universal themes that could connect with viewers everywhere.
