Gouri Elo is a Bengali series featured on the channel Zee Bengala. It debuted in February 2022. The series stars Biswarup Bandyopadhyay as Dr. Ishan Ghoshal and Mohona Maiti as Gouri Ghoshal. More than 400 episodes have been produced. Crazy Ideas Media is the studio behind the series, while Souvik Chakraborty, Anandarupa, and Souvik Chakraborty are the main writers. Sougata Mukherjee and Swarnendu Samadder are the creative directors.

Dasgupta’s death is the latest tragedy to strike Bollywood. In March, the industry lost a titan, actor and director Satish Kaushik, at age 66. Kaushik suffered a heart attack, his nephew, Nishaan Kaushik, told BBC Hindi. Kaushik broke through in 1987 with the comedy Mr. India, in which he played a cook named Calendar. The success of the film led to decades of work in Bollywood as an actor, director, and screenwriter. He appeared in more than 150 movies.
