The film was presented by Sanjay Agarwal and produced and released by Windows. Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee collaborated on the screenplay and direction.
Other Details
Raktabeej was Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy’s debut thriller film, and it was a huge success since it broke away from their usual family drama formula. With its stunning cinematography, compelling characters, clever action scenes, and healthy doses of humour, the film is both riveting and enjoyable.
There is an absence of superfluous sentimentality, in contrast to other films directed by Shiboprosad and Nandita. The audience loves it since it’s creative and interesting.
