Early life and background

Sourav Chakraborty was born on 11 October 1988 in West Bengal, India. As of 2024 he is 36 years old and holds Indian nationality. He grew up in a family that included his mother, Ankita Chakraborty, and a sister, Sunanda Chakraborty. His father, who passed away from cancer, is remembered by Sourav and has been a motivating presence in his life; in 2023 Sourav dedicated a book to him.

Sourav developed an early interest in poetry. While still a schoolchild he produced several collections: his first book appeared when he was in fifth grade, a second followed in seventh grade, and a third collection was released at a book fair in 2002. In January 2023 he launched another book titled Khobor Achhe at an Oxford bookstore.

Career

Sourav works across acting, directing, writing and producing within the Bengali entertainment industry. He made his acting debut on television in 2011, appearing in the series Sobinoy Nibedan as Joydeep. He became widely recognised for his portrayal of Sourav Moitra in the serial Bodhu Kon Alo Laaglo Chokhe. On screen he has also been seen in films such as Bhobishyoter Bhoot (2019) and the psychological drama Burning Butterflies (2021).

On the digital front, Sourav has taken on both acting and directing roles. As an actor he played Bijoy Mukherjee in the Hoichoi crime thriller web series Murder in the Hills (2021) and appeared in the ZEE5 thriller drama Shwetkali (2023). As a director he has created several web series, including Cartoon (2017), Dhanbad Blues (2018), Calm Sutra (2019), Shobdo Jobdo (2020), and Rajneeti (2023). His work behind the camera has drawn attention and earned recognition from audiences.

Beyond production and performance, Sourav is a co-founder of Uribaba, an entertainment platform launched in 2020 positioned as an independent Bangla entertainment website offering web series, short films and sketch videos. The venture has grown into a notable outlet for regional digital storytelling and in 2022 the Uribaba YouTube channel received a Gold Play Button.

He is active on social media and often shares personal memories, photographs with animals—especially dogs—and images that reflect his interests in literature and film. A 2023 Instagram post recounted a childhood recollection of him and his sister play-acting scenes from King Kong vs. Godzilla, a memory that also included his father stepping in as a referee.
