Director Statement


My latest film, Kichukkhon Por, also known as Option B, is an experimental film. After struggling with writer's block, I finally found the inspiration I needed to create this film. Despite facing financial constraints, I was determined to bring my beloved story to life and completed the project with a minimal cast and crew over the span of two and a half years. We shot the film in January 2023, and every scene was infused with my personal touch.

Originally, I had planned to create a film with interconnected stories, but due to budgetary limitations, I had to put that project on hold. But I was determined to share my story with my audience and that's how Kichukkhon Por was born.

The story holds a special place in my heart, and I hope that audiences will appreciate the depth and sincerity of the film. I wanted to create something that would resonate with viewers on a personal level, and I can't wait to see how they react to my experimental style. I'm excited to share my work with the world and see where this journey takes me.
