Director Soukarya Ghoshal‘s next film ‘Rainbow Jelly’ will take you to that land of reverie where your sweet, sour or spicy craving will play with your emotion throughout the day. India’s first food-fantasy film ‘Rainbow Jelly’ depicts the story of ‘Ghoton’ who being an autistic orphan boy is deprived of the love and affection like other kids of his age. Continuously tortured by his maternal uncle and mocked as ‘awpoyar chhele’ (son of unlucky woman) by his fellow neighborhood, Ghoton earnestly desires to escape from the harsh reality and dreams that one day his world would be perfect with joy and happiness. His life takes an unexpected turn when he meets ‘Poripisi’, mysterious lady who cooks magical dish ‘Rainbow Jelly’containing all seven tastes Sweet, Sour, Salty, Spicy, Pungent, Astringent & Bitter,illuminating all the seven colours of the world.

Produced in 2018 by Director Soukarya Ghoshal, the film "Rainbow Jelly" is the first ever Food Fantasy Film made in Bengali language. The story of the film is an outcome of Ghosal's last two years of research on Taste Theory & Ayurveda. the film depicts Mahabrata Basu, a 13-year- old boy who features the protagonist of the story ‘Ghoton’, was struck by septicaemia an hour after his birth. If the reel Ghoton can experience the glimpse of fortune or not will be revealed in the film, but in no doubt Rainbow Jelly is the eye-witness of the victory of Real ‘Ghoton’ who after undergoing a methodical workshop for the movie, is no more a pupil of a special school; now he is just like another school-going guy next door, mugging up all the lessons by heart and recalling them during exam without any flaws.
