Of late one of the most eye grabbing and impactful Bengali OTT series was Indu starring Ishaa Saha in the lead character. While the narrative started during the wedding preparations of Indu when mysterious incidents started occurring, it deepened further when she actually got married and entered her in-laws' mansions. From walls having eyes to people having eyes at the back of their heads, Indu progressed throughout two seasons where audiences were only dragged deeper into the mysterious abyss. And now, with the series finale of Indu 3, it is finally time to reveal it all. A Sahana Dutta creation, Indu 3 has been written and directed by Ayan Chakraborti with Ishaa Saha reprising her role for one last time.
The actor had a candid chat of her experience of shooting the series and playing the character. When asked about how it feels that the series which has been loved so much is finally revealing the secrets that everyone wanted to know, Ishaa mentions, “It feels great, and we too wanted it to reach a culmination and know what finally happens. We were curious as well. Many of my friends have often asked me what happens next, but I really didn’t know back then. When shooting was completed and the questions continued, I obviously wouldn’t have divulged. One needs to watch it to find out for themselves. We are equally excited now that it is finally releasing.”
Between Season 1 and Season 3 has passed almost five long years during which Ishaa has gone in and out of several characters and also resumed shooting for Seasons 2 and 3. How was this transition possible so effortlessly? She answers, “There’s no mantra. I had to re-watch the previous seasons. When I play a character once, there is not much to think about. But when you reprise a role, and you have done so much in between, I thought I should go over the show once more. I discovered that Indu is very calm, and I had to match her personality despite being different.”
Recalling her last day of shoot she says, “Only Manasi (Sinha) and I were there on the last day. It was a 15-day schedule, and everyone finished on their time and left.” Post Indu 3, which is anticipated to be a blockbuster drop during the Durga Puja weekend, Ishaa would be seen in Lawho Gouranger Naam Re.
Indu 3 starts streaming on Hoichoi from September 27
