Mirror had earlier reported (May 9, 2017) that after backing the National Award-winning Marathi film ‘Ventilator’, ‘Bam Bam Bol Raha Hai Kashi’ in Bhojpuri and Sarvann in Punjabi, among others, Priyanka Chopra will now produce a period romance titled ‘Nalini’, which recreates Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s real-life romance and will be directed by National Award-winning director Ujjwal Chatterjee. We have now learnt that the film will roll in September and wrap up by December. The makers have roped in Bengali actor Saheb Bhattacharjee to play Tagore, while Marathi actress Vaidehi Parshurami has been cast as Nalini. Confirming the news, Chatterjee says, “I have discussed it with Madhu ma’am (Priyanka’s mother) and while we’re taking the film on the floors in September, the candid shots will begin in July as we require rains for some important sequences in the film.” Prod him on the reason behind the delay and he informs, “That is because we got the permission on the script from Visva-Bharati University only in December last year after submitting three drafts. After that we had decided to make the film in English with Priyanka in it but that didn’t materialise. We have finally decided to make it a Bengali, Marathi, English trilingual. Pre-production is on in full swing right now and I will start workshops with my actors closer to the shooting date.” In 1878, when Tagore was 17 and staying with Dr Atmaram Pandurang Turkhud at his Mumbai residence, he fell in love with his 20-year-old daughter, Annapurna. She had just returned from England and since she was conversant with English etiquette, she became his tutor. On Annapurna’s insistence, he gave her the name Nalini, and immortalised her in a poem he wrote for her and set to music too. However, Tagore’s father did not approve of his lady love and the liaison ended. In 1880, Annapurna married a Scot, Harold Littledale, and the couple left for England. “It was a platonic love story and the film will narrate it from the point of view of a young student who visits modern-day Santiniketan and sees a picture of Annapurna captioned ‘Nalini’,” Chatterjee had earlier told Mirror. His wife Sagarika has written the film, while casting director Rohan Mapuskar has also roped in Soumitra Chatterjee, Victor Banerjee, Madhav Abhyankar, Seema Deshmukh, Sukhada Khandkekar and Angad Mhaskar for pivotal roles.TOI : 4th.

ACTRESS PRIYANKA CHOPRA’s TRI-LINGUAL ON RABINDRANATH TAGORE WILL COME ON THE FLOOR IN SEPTEMBER : Mirror had earlier reported (May 9, 2017) that after backing the National Award-winning Marathi film 'Ventilator'

REVEALED: Priyanka Chopra to now produce a TRILINGUAL based on the life of Rabindranath Tagore and here are the details

When Priyanka Chopra turned producer, the actress had confessed that one of the reasons why she decided to take up production was because she wanted to tell good stories. Keeping up with the promise, Priyanka is now gearing up for Trilingual. Nalini, inspired by an intriguing story from the life of Rabindranath Tagore, will be releasing in Bengali, Marathi and English

Directed by Ujjwal Chatterjee, the film will have Marathi actress Vaidehi Parashurami in the titular role. Saheb Bhattacharya will essay the role of Rabindranath Tagore in this film. Director Ujjwal has mentioned in reports that he has already discussed about the film with Madhu Chopra (who handles Priyanka’s production banner Purple Pebble Pictures). He asserted that the film will go on floor in September. At the same time, he revealed that they would have to start with the candid shots in July. He reasoned that monsoons play an important role in these shots and hence they decided to start the same a little early. However, he was quick to add that the actors will be starting their workshop only before the film rolls.

The filmmaker also explained the reasons for the delay stating that it was a difficult process to attain permission for the script from the Visva-Bharti University. He received the same in December last year and the idea was to make an English film with Priyanka Chopra in the lead. But whilst that deal didn’t materialize, he decided to take it ahead as a trilingual.

For the uninitiated, the story of Nalini is inspired by the romantic and platonic love story of Annapurna and Rabindranath Tagore in the late 1870s. He met Annapurna when he was staying with Dr. Atmaram Pandurang in Mumbai. Annapurna was 20 when Tagore was 17. She was an England returned affluent English woman who turned his tutor. While they fell in love, Annapurna’s father was against their liaison. Annapurna eventually married Scot Harold Littledale in 1880 and she settled in England.

On the other hand, speaking of Nalini, it is set in the contemporary generation with a young student visiting modern day Shantiniketan and coming across a painting of Nalini. Written by Ujjwal’s wife Sagarika, the film will also star Soumitra Chatterjee, Victor Banerjee, Seema Deshmukh among others.
