Sri Soumitra Chatterjee Launches The Thriller THE JOB CHARNOCK RIDDLE by Victor Ghoshe

 
 
 
 

Victor Ghoshe's Novel: The Job Charnock Riddle A Historical Thriller: Launched by Dadasaheb Phalke award winning veteran actor Sri Soumitra Chatterjee This new thriller THE JOB CHARNOCK RIDDLE is part fact, pact fiction that dwells in both the past and present times, trying to bridge a gap between the two. Also present in the launch ceremony were film maker Anik Dutta, actor-elocutionist Sujoy Prasad Chatterjee and singer Lagnajita Chakraborty.

Soumitra Chatterjee, who had acted in a movie as Job Charnock (the famous senior officer of the East India Company) said, "We are evidently aware of Job Charnock, who he was and the role he played in the expansion of the British Empire in India." Chatterjee also regaled the audience with a spooky story based on a real incident. He recalled the day he worked at the All India Radio and how he had once met a ghost, who wore traditional costume resembling the Victorian era. "I still don't know if ghosts exist, but I am scared of them," said the Dada Saheb Phalke awardee.



Speaking about the subject of his book, Victor Ghoshe said, "I was reading a research work on old Kolkata in 2010, when it caught my attention that the treasury of Shayesta Khan was looted. It is well documented. Then cut a few years later, Job Charnock emerged as a very powerful man. I was intrigued as to what happened in between, why isn’t there any information on it. So I decided to write a plot around it."



Ghoshe also spoke about a second story line in the book which is equally strong and about codes, deciphers and religious relics. He added that working as a communication specialist has shaped him into what he has become today. "Every author learns from his job. People add value to your life, we learn from each of them a lot." When asked if books in the form of paper will sustain in the near future, he said, "This charm has to stay on, at least for the next 100 years." The evening was not void of drama either, as popular Bengali film director Anik Dutta took up the microphone and asked Ghoshe not to commit to too many people as he is likely to make a movie out of it.
