Renowned actress Jaya Ahsan continues to captivate audiences in both Bangladesh and India with her exceptional performances. As a multiple-time National Film Award winner in Bangladesh and a recipient of accolades in India, Jaya is set to grace the big screen once again with her upcoming film, “OCD,” scheduled for release on February 6.
The recently unveiled trailer for the film has garnered widespread acclaim for its profound psychological narrative and societal relevance. Speaking from Kolkata, where she is actively engaged in promotional activities, Jaya shared insights about her character in the film and the significance of “OCD” in the contemporary context.
Directed by Soukarya Ghosal, the movie represents Jaya’s second collaboration with the filmmaker following their work on “Bhootpori.” In “OCD,” she portrays Shweta, a character she deeply resonates with, particularly for her advocacy for children and the poignant message embedded within the storyline.
Exploring the enduring emotional impact of childhood trauma, “OCD” delves into uncomfortable yet essential themes, prompting reflection on the consequences of a deprived childhood. Jaya emphasizes the film’s relevance in shedding light on the profound effects of early experiences on individuals in later years.
In her role as a doctor grappling with unresolved emotional wounds, Jaya describes Shweta’s character as intricately layered, with lingering shadows from her past. She commends the performance of her co-star, Fazlur Rahman Babu, and the dedication of the entire cast, including child artiste Arshiya Mukherjee, who portrays the younger version of her character.
Reflecting on the impactful trailer, Jaya acknowledges the resonance of the film’s portrayal of childhood traumas shaping individuals’ futures. Engaged in full-scale promotions for “OCD” in Kolkata through various media channels, Jaya expresses confidence in the film’s ability to resonate with audiences and evoke profound emotions.
Despite missing her co-star Babu during the promotional activities, Jaya remains focused on the film’s potential to move viewers. Recently honored for her performance in “Putulnacher Itikatha,” Jaya values the recognition received for her portrayal of Kusum, underscoring the significance of portraying such roles.
Looking ahead, Jaya anticipates that “OCD” will leave a lasting impact on audiences, aiming to create a memorable experience that lingers in the minds of viewers long after the film concludes.
