Actress Pallavi Joshi, who is the producer of the upcoming movie The Bengal Files, has written an open letter to President Droupadi Murmu to help them release their movie in West Bengal.
The Bengal Files is set against the backdrop of Direct Action Day on 16th August 1946 in Calcutta (now Kolkata), filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri’s The Bengal Files marks the concluding chapter of his acclaimed truth-revealing trilogy after The Tashkent Files and The Kashmir Files.
While its teaser had already sent shockwaves across the nation, the release of the hard-hitting trailer left audiences stunned with its unflinching spirit of truth.
Producer-actor Pallavi Joshi in her letter has requested the intervention of President Murmu help ensure the film’s release in Bengal. She further said that the multiplex chains have allegedly denied screening it due to political pressure.
Pallavi Joshi took to her social media, sharing a note addressed to the President of India, Droupadi Murmu, urging her to protect their constitutional right and facilitate the film’s release in Bengal.
Along with the note, she wrote:
"URGENT APPEAL
Your Excellency, presidentofindia,
As Producer of #TheBengalFiles, I am pained that multiplex chains in Bengal have refused the film's release under political pressure and threats by the ruling party.
I plead for your intervention to uphold my constitutional rights and ensure its release in Bengal.
