Sumana Das: From 'Tumpa Sona' Fame to Festival Films

Actress Sumana Das has charted a remarkable course in the entertainment industry, marked by pivotal moments and global expansion.

The film, expected to premiere at major festivals before its theatrical release, is noted for its blend of family drama, dark humor, and thriller elements, aiming for both Indian and international audiences with its themes of healing and redemption.
