Curiosità

Devi Chowdhurani is a 2025 Indian Bengali-language epic period action-adventure film directed by Subhrajit Mitra. Based on Bankim Chandra Chatterjee's novel of Devi Chaudhurani, the film is produced by Aniruddha Dasgupta and Aparna Dasgupta under the banner of ADited Motion Pictures (USA) and co-produced by Hassan Choudhury under the banner of HC Films Limited (UK).

Production

In August 2023, it was reported that filming would begin in March 2024. The film is produced by Aniruddha Dasgupta and Aparna Dasgupta under the banner of ADited Motion Pictures, with Hassan Choudhury as co-producer under Hc Films Limited. Devi Chaudhurani is one of the most expensive Indian Bengali films ever made, with a budget of ₹25 crore.

The film marks Sabyasachi Chakraborty's comeback to films. In January 2023, Sabyasachi Chakraborty attended the 21st Dhaka International Film Festival in Bangladesh (East Bengal) as a special guest, where he told the media that he would be retiring from films for some time. However, Devi Choudhurani: Bandit Queen of Bengal's director Subhrajit Mitra chose Sabyasachi Chakrabarty to play the role of Zamindar Haravallav Ray in May 2023.

The film was initially planned to begin shooting in November 2023 with around 250 crew members. However, delays pushed the start of filming to January 2024.

Filming began on 27 January 2024 in North Kolkata, at Jimmy Laha's house. At that time, Srabanti Chatterjee, Sabyasachi Chakrabarty, Kinjal Nanda, and Darshana Banik took part in the shoot. On 28 January, the crew and production team arrived in Purulia district for the remaining shoot of the first phase. Srabanti was joined by Bibriti Chatterjee, Arjun Chakrabarty, and Dr. Priyadarshini G. Roy during filming.

The second phase was filmed in Birbhum and Kolkata in West Bengal, as well as in the states of Jharkhand and Bihar. Prosenjit Chatterjee, who plays the character of Bhavani Charan Pathak, joined the shoot for this phase.
