QR – Cure – Quizzing Realms – 305

Let’s make this an easy one.

A recent development in the filming of director Sanjoy Nag’s Memories in March, which stars Deepti Naval and director-turned-actor Rituparno Ghosh, has caused the film to be touted as probably the first film to have done something. In what respect is this film a first?

Can be easily googled, but try answering without it first….

Happy quizzing, and have a nice life, folks!

Five answers, but only pritfloyd and Subhajyoti have what I was looking for. This is probably the first movie ever to change its language because of the leading lady. It was supposed to have been shot in Bengali, but Deepti Naval was so uncomfortable with it that the film-makers decided to shoot it in Hindi!

  2. It is probably the first film which was scripted in Bengali, but finally finished as a hindi film because Deepti was not comfortable with Bengali
