Movies

'Qala' tells the story of the titular character, Triptii Dimri, who is one of Kolkata's most popular playback singers in the 1930s. Sudha is her assistant (Girija Oak). She is best friends with Naseeban Aapa (Tasveer Kamil) and lyricist Majrooh (Varun Grover). Her future appears to be bright and full of possibilities. But her toxic relationship with her mother, Urmila (Swastika Mukherjee), haunts her.

Urmila has always held a grudge against Qala for being the twin who survived childbirth and killed her unborn son in the process. The arrival of a grassroots singer named Jagan (Babil Khan) inadvertently magnified this bad blood, as Urmila treated him as her son. Qala grew increasingly envious of Jagan as Urmila began to do everything in her power to establish him as a mainstream artist. This prompted her to take some unsavoury actions, the consequences of which loom large in her mind.

Babil became emotional during the 66th Filmfare Awards in 2021 when he won Irrfan Khan’s Lifetime Achievement Award.  Babil will star with Triptii Dimri and Swastika Mukherjee in Anvitaa Dutt’s Netflix film Qala. Anushka Sharma and Karnesh Sharma’s production company, Clean Slate Films, are producing the film. He will also appear in Shiv Rawail’s The Railway Men, starring R.
