Zubeen Garg, an actor-musician known for his chart-topping songs in 'Gangster' (2006) and 'Kaante' (2002), will lead the cast of the Assam-UK action-thriller film 'Sikaar'.
It is a thriller where east meets west, and is scheduled to start shooting in Oct 2022. Garg will play a moralistic tea garden worker seeking revenge in London.
The film, directed by Debankar Borgohain, will showcase the beauty of Assam before moving to the UK. Bhattacharjee shared that he has been a fan of Garg since his college days, and initially wanted him to be the musical inspiration for the film.
However, after a discussion with the director, Garg agreed to play the role of Shankar. 'Sikaar' will be shot in Assam and the UK, under the production of Big Films Media.
The film will showcase unique aspects of Assamese culture, language, and traditions. Watching "Sikaar" will be a way to learn more about and appreciate this rich cultural heritage.
