Susovan Sonu Roy Makes Bengali Film Debut After Television and Modelling

Kolkatta, Nov 09:.Bengali actor Susovan Sonu Roy has made his feature-film debut with Take Care Bhalobasa, directed by Soumojit Adak, after working in television and commercial modelling.

Roy plays the character Joy in the film, which revolves around four friends and their relationships. The film also features Sholanki Roy, Soumya Mukherjee, Rahul Mazumdar and Shreema Bhattacharjee in prominent roles.

Roy began his television career in 2019 with the Akash Aath serial Anandamoyee Maa, directed by the late Debidas Bhattacharya, in which he played a Vaishnav devotee.

He later appeared in several Bengali television serials, including Star Jalsha’s Mohor, Korapakhi, Titli and Khelaghar, as well as Zee Bangla’s Jamuna Dhaki. In Korapakhi, he portrayed a negative character opposite actress Parno Mitra.

Alongside television, Roy ventured into commercial modelling in 2023, appearing in advertising assignments for brands including Holiday Inn, Dabur, Amazon, Spencer’s and Big Bazaar.

He also participated in beauty pageants and was named first runner-up at the Ethnic Elegance 2025 competition held in Kolkata in December that year, receiving the title of ‘Mr. Ethnic Elegance 2025 – First Runner-Up’.

Born in Howrah and raised in Kolkata, Roy lost his father when he was three and a half years old and was brought up by his mother. He graduated in Commerce from Dum Dum Motijheel Rabindra Mahavidyalaya in 2016. He also has family ties to Guwahati, where his maternal home is located.

Before entering television, Roy trained in Western dance for nearly two years and performed in stage programmes. He later underwent acting training for around one-and-a-half to two years at a workshop conducted by director Pijush Saha.

His career has since taken him from dance and stage performances to television, modelling and now Bengali cinema.
