Wissenswertes

The Bengali Night is a 1988 semi-autobiographical film based upon the Mircea Eliade 1933 Romanian novel, Bengal Nights, directed by Nicolas Klotz and starring Hugh Grant, Soumitra Chatterjee, Supriya Pathak and Shabana Azmi.

Production and controversy

Production of the film occurred about a decade after Maitreyi Devi, the inspiration for the character Gayatri, published her version of the story Na Hanyate (It Doesn't Die, 1974). She also extracted a promise from Eliade that his version would never be published in English as long as she is alive.

The film was mostly shot at the huge Zamindar Mansion - "Gaine Bari" (Gaine Castle) of the village of Dhanyakuria and some parts were filmed at Indrapuri Studios, Kolkata.
