COVID-19 lockdown has left everyone in the state of uncertainity. Most of the professional outings saw a pause for a long time. Film industries were all shut due to the social distancing precautions. As many of the shoots are now however resuming, so did the shoot of Bengali film, SOS Kolkata. The Ayushman Pratyush directed movie is said to be the first film to go on floors post lockdown.

The flick starring Nusrat Jahan, Mimi Chakraborty and Yash went on floors on Wednesday in a city studio. Lead actress was quoted saying by TOI, "After months of no shooting, I finally entered the movie town studio this morning and it seems it is the beginning of a new era. All the familiar faces are clad in mask. I’m getting jitters. But I’m happy we are all back to the new normal. So many technicians have been out of work for so many days. I hope everything eventually turns out alright."
