Speaking about his character, Prosenjit shared, “I was living Srikant Roy’s character for 7 months before shooting (due to lockdown), there were just minor changes when I got back on the sets. In the series, you will see me in a very nice hairstyle. This is dedicated to my father Biswajeet Chatterjee, they used to have that kind of styling back in the days.”
Directed by Vikramaditya Motwane, Jubilee is created by Soumik Sen along with Motwane and is produced by Andolan Films in association with Reliance Entertainment and Phantom.

According to IANS, she said, “I have always been a fan of period drama films, especially from the black and white era. When Jubilee was offered to me, I jumped at the offer, it was like reminiscing about the good old days.”
