praktan

Veteran Bengali superstar Prosenjit Chatterjee was bestowed with the Padma Shri at the Padma Awards 2026 ceremony in New Delhi. President Droupadi Murmu presented the prestigious honour to the emotional actor at Rashtrapati Bhavan. Chatterjee, who has dedicated over four decades to Bengali cinema, expressed immense joy and attributed his success to audience appreciation and his mother's sacrifices.

A great start, a tumultous relationship, the eventual heartbreak and getting over it all -praktan is everyone's story .

‘Tumi jaake bhalobasho’ from Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy’s 2016 blockbuster ‘praktan’ is still regarded as one of the best sad songs in Bengali cinema.

Kolkata, May 11 () After the success of Bengali film "Belaseshe," upcoming flick "praktan" (Former), which marks the return of the superhit pair of Prosenjit Chatterjee and Rituparna Sengupta, will be released all over the country.

Director duo Shiboprasad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy’s 2016 film 'praktan' paired one of Bengali film industry's most romantic onscreen pair- Rituparna Sengupta and Prosenjit Chatterjee after a long period.

As ‘praktan’ completes four years of its release, not just the actors, but director Shiboprosad Mukherjee too is nostalgic. Shiboprosad and Nandita Roy, the director duo did the unthinkable bringing back the iconic onscreen jodi of Prosenjit Chatterjee and Rituparna Sengupta for their film ‘praktan’ in 2016.

After winning hearts in ‘praktan’, Prosenjit and Rituparna’s onscreen chemistry this time revolves around a lawyer-client relationship.

Rituparna Sengupta bagged the Best Actor (Critics) Award for praktan at the Filmfare Awards East 2017 and has been on a celebratory mood ever since.

Rituparna Sengupta said a lot of the credit for bringing the celebrated screen jodi of Prosenjit and Rituparna goes to directors Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee

Anupam Roy, song writer-composer-singer and a revered name in the industry, had written the song ‘Tumi Jaake Bhalobasho’ in 2011. He says it was “the texture and tonality of Iman’s voice” that attracted him.

The relationship drama had paired one of the Bengali film industry's most romantic onscreen pairs- Rituparna Sengupta and Prosenjit Chatterjee after a long period. Just like 'Bela Sheshe' in 2015, this film also became a little gem at the Box Office.

Posto is releasing in USA, Canada, Dubai and possibly Tokyo and London. The director's request is simple. He urges his viewers overseas to come to the theatres, big or small, to watch the movie and not support piracy.

The lead pair ��� Prosenjit Chatterjee and Rituparna Sengupta ��� of Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee���s praktan are poles apart.

Anupam roy is a happy man! And why not? The singer-composer has shared the best lyricist's award for Tumi Jaake Bhalobasho from Shiboprasad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy's praktan, at the National Awards.

Diwali is over and cinemas in the city are to ground zero. Priya, Menoka, Ajanta, Asoka, Prachi, Jaya and Rupasi will shut down on Friday. The move comes despite four Soumitra Chatterjee movies — ‘Belaseshe’, ‘Sanjhbati’, ‘praktan’ and ‘Posto’ — re-releasing as a tribute to the legend who passed away on Sunday.
