Prosenjit Chatterjee, a celebrated figure in Bengali cinema, heralds his upcoming film 'Devi Chowdhurani' as a profound historical narrative, rather than merely a cinematic endeavor. The film, based on Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay's novel, seeks to illuminate a pivotal chapter in India's fight against colonial rule.
Chattopadhyay, who also penned the iconic patriotic song 'Vande Mataram', provides the inspiration for this production by ADited Motion Pictures and LOK Arts Collective. The narrative features Srabanti Chatterjee in the title role, alongside Prosenjit, and recounts the tale of a village girl's journey to becoming a revolutionary under the guidance of Bhavani Pathak, portrayed by Prosenjit.
As the film prepares for its September 26 release, Chatterjee stresses its global relevance, supported by both Indian and UK entities. The release coincides with the celebration of Bankim Chandra's 150th anniversary, encapsulating his enduring legacy. This release adds to Prosenjit's rich catalog of festive releases acclaimed by audiences worldwide.
