New Delhi: Known for his movie ‘The Dairy of West Bengal’, film director Sanoj Mishra has been reported missing. Mishra's film, which explores the violent incidents in West Bengal, has sparked intense controversy and debate, leading to numerous threats against the filmmaker.
The situation escalated following the release of the film's trailer, which prompted the West Bengal Government to file a legal case against Mishra. In response, Mishra travelled to Kolkata on August 14 to attend a court hearing related to the case.
Bollywood actress turned politician, Kangana Ranaut drew attention to Mishra's plight through an Instagram Story. Sharing a photo of the filmmaker, Ranaut wrote "He is Sanoj Kumar Mishra, he has directed a film called The Diary of West Bengal. After the trailer of his movie released Mamata Banerjee government filed a case on him and he went to Kolkata on 14th August to attend the court hearing of the same."
