There was a time when Dev and Subhashree Ganguly used to be an ‘it’ couple in the Bengali film industry. Their on-screen chemistry was sizzling and their off-screen relationship was rumored to be intimate. However, things changed. Subhashree tied the knot with Raj Chakraborty after their film Abhimaan, and they are happily married and have two children. Dev, meanwhile, has been in a relationship with actress Rukmini Maitra.
Despite their speculated relationship, Dev and Subhasree did not confirm it publicly. In fact, it became public after they separated. Now, Dev and Subhasree are not friends, but they maintain courtesy. But will they work together again?
Anandabazar Online put some rapid-fire questions to Dev. Who formed the best pair with Dev? He mentioned his co-actors -- Paran Banerjee and Mithun Chakraborty. Then he chose two directors -- Srijit Mukherji and Kamaleswar Mukherjee among the directors. Among the heroines, he mentioned Koel and Rukmini. Then he mentioned Srabanti. Then he thought a bit and said, "Subhasree is there but things are so...everything got scattered. I think I form a good pair with everyone."
Will he team up with Subhasree? Dev said, "It depends...people around me understood that I will not approach, hence will not be approached either."
Dev and Subhasree started their journey with the film Challenge. Then they acted in the films Paran Jay Jaliya Re, Khokababu, and Romeo. Even after they got separated, Dev cast Subhasree as the heroine in his film Dhumketu which was his debut as the producer. However, the film was not released due to a disagreement with the co-producer Rana Sarkar. What is the film's future? Dev answered, "You have Rana Sarkar's number, right? Please ask him."
Why did they break up? The answer is unknown. But fans are eagerly waiting to see them together again on the screen. Before that, Dev and Subhasree will contest each other on Christmas. Subhasree's film Shontan, which is directed by Raj, is coming on December 20. Dev's film Khadan will be released on the same day.
