FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE "BENGAL TIGER - THE RAJBANSI STORY" - DOCUMENTARY BEGINS FILMING: A CAPTIVATING JOURNEY THROUGH THE LIFE OF A POLITICAL ICON The Minority Front and LX SETH (PTY) LTD are thrilled to announce the commencement of filming for the highly anticipated documentary, "Bengal Tiger - The Rajbansi Story." Directed by Arish Sirkissoon, the project promises to bring Rajbansi's captivating story to life, uncovering the untold journey of a man who overcame poverty, apartheid, and scandal to leave an indelible mark on the South African political landscape during its most controversial era. Sirkissoon expressed his exhilaration at the prospect of telling this powerful narrative, stating, "I believe this story has deep roots in history, and I am truly surprised it hasn't been told visually before. The project will take the form of a series, while also offering a condensed cinematic cut. My ultimate hope is that audiences, whether in the cinema or at home, will feel like they truly knew him after experiencing this journey. This project is incredibly close to my heart." Shameen Thakur Rajbansi, the producer/executive producer of the project, shared her thoughts stating that “emotions will always run high when a tall figure who shaped the South African Indian cultural and socio- political landscape for decades is no more. Mr Rajbansi brought a human face to politics, a grass-roots politician who followed his passion from 12 years old until his last breath, a movie can only preserve his legacy”.
