"I have been looking forward to working in Kolkata films for a long time. I feel their projects are very well crafted. Last year, while receiving an award in Kolkata, I expressed my interest in working there. Since then, I started getting offers. As I already had the desire to work on the other side of the border, I thought why not start with this film?"

"Felubokshi" is a thriller where Pori will portray the role of Labonnyo, a mysterious character. Pori Moni also informed she will fly to Kolkata next week. Prior to the shooting, she will participate in a five-day grooming session. In addition to the abovementioned project, she will also be filming an advertisement film in Kolkata.
