The gripping trailer of ‘The Bengal Files’ is finally out, offering a chilling glimpse into one of the most tragic and turbulent chapters in Indian history — the 1946 Calcutta killings and Direct Action Day.
Directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, this film is the third in his thought-provoking Files trilogy, following the critical and commercial success of The Tashkent Files and The Kashmir Files.
The trailer is intense and unapologetic — featuring blasts, riots, burning effigies, and disturbing visuals that recreate the chaos of Bengal’s past. Anupam Kher, portraying Mahatma Gandhi, brings emotional depth and intensity to a story shrouded in historical silence.
‘The Bengal Files’ promises to stir conversations, challenge narratives, and shed light on a period many have forgotten — or never knew.
The film is set to hit theatres later this year.
