Summary Ambition is a virtue and without this one virtue, no family can make a mark in the dark echelons of power which is ruled today by the GodDons like Ibrahim Saluz. This is today when we are much aware of the names and infamous missions of the Dons whose legacy are much feared by the people and most admired by the ones working within the system of the underworld. But when organised crime was just taking shape in India, East Pakistan declared war against Pakistan demanding a free country and as the infamous genocide was erupting in Bangladesh, a refugee family crossed borders and they arrived to West Bengal and in the next three decades, they went in to become the most powerful underworld syndicate of the East. The most admirable thing about the family was that despite their eminent participation in gambling, money laundering, land grabbing, human trafficking and narcotics, they managed to remain absolutely anonymous and invisible. Such was the world of the Senapati family under Deben Senapati. Times were changing and as social media grew in popularity, Deben's elder son Rupen's syndicate (based out of Thailand) became known and visible and thus "touchable". Rupen was always considered to be lethal and the anti crime syndicates considered him to be the true adversary of the crime God Ibrahim Saluz who operates global terrorism from Karachi, Pakistan. As Saluz became almost invincible, the case Officer's at CSD, RAW and Interpol decided to offer support Rupen to get Saluz. It's an old trick in the book, where the wolf is chosen to hunt the Lion. Once the Lion is compromised, get rid of the Wolf! Rupen too is much aware of the trick, but he wants to use this free leash he has been offered to complete certain unfinished scores and visit his ailing father in Kolkata, India without being arrested in any of the airports. Deben was to celebrate his 75th birthday and as the family (Rupen and Brijen, a student at UK) was all set to get together, a secret assassination kills Deben and leaves the city of Kolkata in sheer discord. With the father killed, everyone is a suspect in Rupen's list and he has 7 days to solve the murder, take his revenge and set things back on track. Senapati is based on these seven days divided in fourteen chapters. It's a journal on the lives and times of Rupen Senapati's journey to Kolkata and takes the shape of a film to show us the power and the night of a gangster family that has been threatened and hurt. Shot in four countries and with an international cast, Senapati is a never seen before piece of work emerging out of Kolkata, India. View more details
