National Film Award-winning actress Bidya Sinha Mim is gearing up for the release of her much-anticipated film, "Manush". The catch? The release is not happening in her home country but in the vibrant city of Kolkata, India.

In "Manush," Mim shares the screen with the renowned Tollywood actor Jeet, under the direction of Sanjoy Samaddar. The actress expresses her excitement about the project, stating, "The news of a new film releasing in Kolkata is delightful. A new film release means working on something new and exciting. I am eagerly looking forward to it."

The story of "Manush" centres around the cruelty of human nature and the consequences of people losing their humanity. "The fantastic storyline will resonate well with the audience. I hope viewers go and watch the film," she said.

Reflecting on her experience working with Jeet, Mim added, "I have previously worked with Jeet and had a great experience. Jeet is not only a talented actor but also a wonderful person."

When probed about her upcoming projects, she disclosed, "I have received several scripts, and I am reading them. If I find something that resonates with me, I will take up the project."

Emphasising her preference for roles grounded in strong narratives, the actress remarked, "The story and characters take precedence for me. I always want to work in good, meaningful films."
