The aftermath of Cyclone Komen has hit large parts of Bengal, Odisha and Manipur, causing floods and landslides.

Omung's special connection with the state comes from the fact his directorial debut was a biopic of the Olympic-winning boxer Mary Kom, who hails from Manipur.

The film starred Priyanka Chopra in the titular role.
