A story of sensational double murder allegedly masterminded by expelled BJD leader and former MLA Anup Sai would soon hit the silver screen.
Odia filmmaker Sridhar Martha would produce the film titled as ‘Mayabini’ under the banner of Range Royal Cine Lab. The producer made the announcement and released a flick of the movie here on Tuesday. However, he did not divulge further details like the star cast and the director for the project.
The production house had recently made the movie ‘Patnagarh’ based on the true incident of the Patnagarh wedding gift blast. Martha had debuted in the Odia film industry as a producer with ‘Katha Deli Matha Chuin’ .
Recently, the Chhattisgarh police arrested ex-Brajrajnagar MLA Anup Sai for murdering a woman and her daughter in 2016. The police claimed that Sai had an illicit relationship with deceased Kalpana Das (32), who was a divorcee and had a 14-year-old daughter, Babli, for quite a long time. Sai had purchased a flat at Sundarpada in Bhubaneswar and the mother-daughter duo was staying in the flat from 2011 to 2016. When Kalpana started insisting on him to marry her and demanded a share from his property, Sai plotted to kill her.
On the fateful day, Sai took both Kalpana and Babli to a forest on the way to Raigarh in Chhattisgarh. He bludgeoned both of them to death with an iron rod and later ran a vehicle over them several times to mutilate the bodies beyond recognition in an attempt to erase evidence.
