The story throws light on the vulnerability that comes with poverty and a lack of education and how easily exploitable it is. While the audience watches the despicable acts of the antagonist, one can’t help but be in awe of the character either. The Bengal Scam aims to entertain its audiences; it is a potboiler or a masala entertainer, through and through. We have incorporated all the needed elements - crime, thrill, drama, action and a stellar cast. Hoping the audience will like it.” Adding to this Rajatava Dutta, who plays the mastermind Bidyut on the show said, “I play Bidyut on The Bengal Scam, the one who orchestrates the entire network of insurance scams that the villages are infested with. Bidyut is a very interesting character with a lot of quirks. There’s a certain nonchalance and humor behind his ruthlessness, which makes him all the more sinister. He is a staunch believer in astrology and believes in fate, but does not spare a thought before killing someone for his own gain. There’s a certain theatric value to him, that makes him an antagonist that you will share a love hate relationship with.” Stay tuned to watch the notoriety of Bidyut and Samudra and Mohona’s fight against the scam, only on The Bengal Scam: Bima Kando, set to release exclusively on hoichoi on 11th November.
