As actor-producer-director Shiboprosad Mukherjee turns 50, it is not just a celebration of chronological milestones but a commemoration of an illustrious career that has left an indelible mark on the landscape of Indian cinema. This year also marks his 30th year in the film industry as an actor.

Shiboprosad's journey in the realm of filmmaking has been nothing short of extraordinary. His directorial ventures have consistently been a reflection of his deep-seated empathy and keen observation of societal intricacies. Be it Ramdhanu, which was about a set of harried parents wanting to get their child admitted to an English-medium school or Haami, which was about an alleged molestation in school or Belashuru that dealt with the family of an Alzheimer's patient, the films have managed to hold a mirror to society.

Shiboprosad's contributions to cinema without acknowledging his role as a producer. Through his production house, Windows Production, he along with his partner, Nandita Roy have provided a platform for budding talents, nurturing fresh voices and innovative storytelling techniques. Through films like Mukherjee Dar Bou, Brahma Janen Gopon Kommoti, Fatafati and other notable projects , Shiboprasad has managed to not just expand his creative side but have given us memorable films. Only last year, he delivered a blockbuster with Raktabeej, directed by Nandita Roy and him.

On celebrating his 50th birthday, Shiboprosad Mukherjee said, "Today is very special for me. I will spend quality time with the family, my wife, mother and sisters. In the first half, It will be a typical Bengali celebration where I will be having 5 different kinds of fritters and payasam. In the second half, I will be celebrating with the Windows team and Nandita Roy with whom I share most of my time on the shooting floor. It's a small gathering, there will be just those without whom my journey of life would have been incomplete." About his best birthday gift, he said, "I have two releases coming up this year --- Aamar Boss and Bohurupi and they the best gifts to me by Didi (Nandita Roy)."

His legacy serves as an inspiration for aspiring filmmakers, a testament to the enduring impact of storytelling, and a reminder of the boundless possibilities that lie ahead in the realm of creative expression.
