Did you know
ā¢ Though she is one of the highest paid actresses, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan did this film for free.
ā¢ Sushmita Sen was the first choice for the role binodini in Chokher Bali, but she refused that offer because she was not believing that she could spoke bengali fluently. So she didn't want to disappoint her audience. Thats why the role of binodini went to Aishwarya Rai.
ā¢ Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was dubbed in this Bengali spoken film by Sreela Majumdar and Raima Sen by Sudipta Chakraborty.
