Close to 150 guests attended the event where Congressman Tom Suozzi, D-NY, was present, and along with New York, Assemblywoman Jenifer Rajkumar presented a proclamation to Sengupta from the Empire State, recognizing her accomplishments.

A trained Manipuri and Odissi dancer, Sengupta is not only an actress but also a producer who has won several awards. She is known for her work in Bengali and Hindi cinema, critically acclaimed for her work in Ahaa Re (2019), Parcel (2020) and Dahan (1998). She also has a dance troupe called “Bhabna Aaj O Kaal” (Contemporary Thoughts), which performs plays based on Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s writings. Filmmakers Mukesh Modi and Tirlok Malik were at the July 15 event in Old Westbury for Sengupta’s felicitation.
