I wish Goutam to have a very long career in Theatre and he would grow from height to another height again and again and make Theater a matter of delight for people not only in West Bengal but as always travelled all over India with his performances and often outside India he has been acknowledged as a great theatre actor.

Goutam Halder has created a long-lasting impression in the mind of everyone. One has to watch in amazement how with the help of his strong acting skills he can simultaneously portray different characters in a play as well as shift to the role of the narrator outside the play with elan.
