People have offered to help with their personal research, links to existing research, books, articles and even school assignments. Just goes to what the Man means to the entire nation, even till today."

The National Award winning director even shared a photograph featuring a stack of books. He had announced the film on August 18, sharing that he will be teaming up with actor Prosenjit Chatterjee for it.
