Actress-producer Pallavi Joshi, who is awaiting the release of her upcoming film The Bengal Files, has spoken up on the challenges that she and her husband, Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, the director of the film faced while mounting the project.
 
The actress-producer spoke with IANS recently at her residence in the Andheri area of Mumbai during the promotional run of her film.

She told IANS, “The biggest hurdle that we faced was that we realised we couldn`t shoot in West Bengal and if you`re talking about ‘The Bengal Files’, at least a portion of it has to be shot in the state but then we realised that we will not be given permission, we were denied permissions. So, we had to put up a set in Bombay and most of this film has outdoor locations."

The production costs surged given Mumbai’s Jive with the economy, real estate and expenses.
