Bob Biswas is written by Sujoy. It also marks the Bollywood debut of filmmaker Diya Ghosh. The movie began filming in January earlier this year but it was delayed due to the Covid-19 scare.

Noted Bengali film actor Saswata Chatterjee, who received immense appreciation for his flawless portrayal of Bob Biswas in Kahaani, was initially approached for the role in the upcoming film, claims reports. Netizens had expressed their desire to see Saswata in the role soon after the film was announced in November last year. However, the actor reportedly could not come on board due to date issues.

Bob Biswas is being produced by Shah Rukh Khan’s Red Chillies Entertainment along with Sujoy’s Bound Script Production.
