The film will be available to stream on ZEE5 starting December 12, 2025. Directed by Subhrajit Mitra, the movie adapts Bankim Chandra Chatterjee’s classic 1884 novel Devi Chowdhurani: Bandit Queen of Bengal.
The story follows Prafulla, a young village woman who is rejected by her in-laws and larger society, and eventually transforms into the feared and respected bandit queen Devi Chowdhurani, fighting injustice and the British Raj.
The narrative is set in British-ruled Bengal against the backdrop of the Sannyasi-Fakir Rebellion.
A major plot point involves Prafulla’s father-in-law selling her to the British, her kidnapping by the dacoit Bhavani Pathak, and how those events shape her rise as a rebel leader.
Srabanti Chatterjee plays Prafulla, who becomes Devi Chowdhurani.
Prosenjit Chatterjee appears as Bhavani Charan Pathak, with Sabyasachi Chakrabarty as Haraballabh Ray, and supporting roles by Arjun Chakrabarty, Bibriti Chatterjee, Darshana Banik, Bharat Kaul, and Alexx O’Nell.
