Actor Saswata Chatterjee on Vivek Agnihotri's film row: ‘I was told it was The Delhi Files during shooting, not The Bengal Files'
Saswata Chatterjee says that he only knows about his villain's role and not the full story of Vivek Agnihotri's film 'The Bengal Files'. Decoding the reasons as to why the film is facing backlash. Saswata Chatterjee on Vivek Agnihotri's film row: 'I was told it was The Delhi Files during shooting, not The Bengal Files' According to reports, Vivek Agnihotri's film is a portrayal of 1946 riots. The movie faces backlash over historical accuracy and portrayal of key figures, with legal notices and public debates intensifying ahead of its September release. Disassociating himself with the 'The Bengali Files' controversy, Bengali actor Saswata Chatterjee said the Vivek Agnihotri film was initially titled 'The Delhi Files'. He said he wasn't aware of the film's story or the reason behind its title change at the last minute. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD According to reports published in India Today, Saswata Chatterjee's comments came two days after the trailer launch of the film was cancelled by the authorities in Kolkata, causing Agnihotri to slam the Mamata Banerjee-led government, calling them 'fascists.' The team of 'The Bengal Files' also faced multiple FIRs in West Bengal for allegedly showing the state in a bad light. Why was the trailer launch disrupted? The trailer launch of the film in Kolkata was disrupted on Saturday. Agnihotri claimed the event was first cancelled by a multiplex and then moved to a hotel where power supply was disrupted. The film is accused of disrupting the legacy of freedom fighter Gopal Mukherjee. The film referred to him as 'Kashai Gopal Patha'. This his family found to be insulting. His grandson filed a FIR against Vivek Agnihotri alleging the makers in misrepresenting his grandfather's role in history. The trailer was cancelled by the authorities in Bengal. Gopal Mukherjee is said to have played a pivotal role in the resistance against the Muslim mob violence in 1946. Santanu claims Agnihotri's film refers to his grandfather as a butcher. Agnihotri said Gopal Mukherjee in his film is an inspired character and not central to the plot. What Vivek Agnihotri said? 'We will go by the Constitution. We will go legally. If they stop us, we will take the legal course. What can we do? We are common citizens like you… We will pray that sanity prevails and the state government does not do it (stop the release),' the filmmaker said at a press conference while hitting out at the Mamata Banerjee-led TMC government in West Bengal.

'Metro In Dino' actor Saswata Chatterjee on acting in Vivek Agnihotri's 'The Bengal Files' amid the controversy: 'The name of the film earlier was The Delhi Files and...'
It's not my job. If those whose job it is feel that Bengal is being belittled, then they can go to court with the information. There is no point is just making noise," said Saswata Chatterjee Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri on Monday said he would go the legal route if the release of his film 'The Bengal Files' is stalled in West Bengal. The trailer launch of the film in Kolkata was disrupted on Saturday. Agnihotri claimed the event was first cancelled by a multiplex and then moved to a hotel where power supply was disrupted and police turned up asking if permission had been taken. 'We will go by the Constitution. We will go legally. If they stop us, we will take the legal course. What can we do? We are common citizens like you… We will pray that sanity prevails and the state government does not do it (stop the release),' the filmmaker said at a press conference here while hitting out at the Mamata Banerjee-led TMC government in West Bengal. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Saswata Chatterjee on the controversy 'I am just an actor. I liked a character and I played it. I am not a historian to think about what history says and this is distorting history. It's not my job. If those whose job it is feel that Bengal is being belittled, then they can go to court with the information. There is no point is just making noise,' said Saswata Chatterjee in an interview with The Wall. 'I don't know. Let me tell you this. Nowadays, it's a trend, the whole story won't be told to anyone. You only get to know your track, your character. And when I was told about the role [in 'The Bengal Files'], I found the character to be amazing. It's a villain's character and very few people get such characters to play,' he added.

Vivek Agnihotri Targets TMC Amid The Bengal Files Row: "FIRs Filed On Us By Ruling Party Members"
New Delhi: After the trailer launch of The Bengal Files was disrupted in Kolkata, filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri targeted the state government and said that "FIRs have been filed by ruling party members" on the makers. A ruckus erupted during the release of The Bengal Files trailer in Kolkata on August 16. The Bengal Files features actors Mithun Chakraborty, Anupam Kher, Darshan Kumar, and Pallavi Joshi. It is focused on the events of the "Direct Action Day," aiming to unveil the "most brutal chapter" of Indian history. Speaking to ANI, Agnihotri said, "I am discovering the political scenario. I had thought how anybody can stop the trailer, but when we went to Kolkata, the multiplex refused to show the trailer after all the permissions in writing. Then, the hotel chain stopped showing the trailer. The police the wire then I was told that the ruling party filed many FIRs as we stand here today, the FIRs are filed on us by the ruling party members and I have been told that ruling party has major objection on portrayal of the untold story of Hindu genocide. They have problem with that film about demographic change." Shantanu Mukherjee, grandson of Gopal Mukherjee, filed an FIR against the director. Speaking about the same, he added, "I just don't want to speak as it is a legal matter, but I just want to give you a hint that a lot of people you are mentioning are trying to blackmail us for a long time. They are members of TMC, and that is why they are trying to put pressure on us, but we will take a legal course and solve it all." On August 16, during the event at ITC Royal Bengal, the trailer was suddenly stopped, the director blamed the authorities, saying, "If this is not dictatorship/fascism, then what is? Law and order in your state has failed, and this is the reason that everyone supports 'The Bengal Files'. I have just got to know that some people came here (event venue in a private hotel) and cut all the wires. I don't know on whose orders this is happening? You know who those people are behind us. After all tests and trials, this programme was being held. The hotel managers still can't tell us why we are not allowed to continue with our programme." While speaking to the media, he highlighted the issue and shared, "Police aur party workers ne milkar unconstitutionally hamare trailer ko radd kiya bharat ke ithihas mein kayi filmein ban huyi pehli baar bharat ke itihaas mein ek state government ne ek film ke trailer ko ban kiya hai. This is very scary and worrisome. Jinhone Indian constitution ki oath li hai, hamare judges, ministers, Chief Ministers, ye log Indian constitution ki oath lete aur Indian constitution mein ye likha gaya hai ki state officials jo hai inka ye dharm hai ye duty hai ki ye common logon ke rights ko protect karenge, especially their free speech and safety. Lekin agar rakshak hi bhakshak ban jaye to koi kya lad sakta hai?" He also shared that the film got a good response in the US, "aur hum ko waha ka Capitol Hill mein invite kiya gaya, The Bengal Files ko present karne ke liye." He said that after taking fresh permissions, the team shifted the launch to the hotel in Kolkata. "We called journalists to watch the trailer. As soon as it was played, the hotel manager suddenly came on stage and said it could not be screened," Agnihotri said, claiming that all the preparations were "done in front of the manager." "When the media asked the manager about the issue, we got information that the police and TMC members were on their way to stop the release," Agnihotri alleged. Pallavi Joshi elaborated on the entire incident that happened on August 16: "I was saying that day before yesterday we were trying to launch the trailer of our film in Kolkata, and it was forcibly stopped by the state government and the police. And since then, we've been getting a lot of calls from the media, but instead of talking to each one separately and giving the same answers, we thought that as responsible producers, as responsible filmmakers, we should all come in one place and speak in one voice. Because this is not just a film, this is, in our perception. Whatever happened the day before yesterday, we look at it as a threat to our democracy -- plain and simple." Agnihotri earlier opened up on the cancellation of the trailer launch event of 'The Bengal Files' by a leading movie theatre chain and why he decided to unveil the trailer on August 16. He said, "Mai America se aaya aur seedhe Kolkata pahucha kyunki trailer launch tha and movie trailers are generally launched in theatres; however, when I reached the airport, I came to know that one of the largest multiplex chains said that they can't do it because there is a lot of political pressure and if they do it, there will be a political turmoil. So we spoke to another multiplex, they also said 'sorry sir', there is a lot of political pressure, we can't do it'. If we had known this from the start, why would we have taken on so many teams and actors and spent so much money to come here?" The film explores the communal violence in undivided Bengal during the 1940s, including events like the 1946 Direct Action Day and the Noakhali riots of 1946, a Hindu genocide. He added, "Aur Direct Action Day, Hindu genocide, Murshidabad riots, film ka trailer kahan launch hona chahiye? Kolkata mein hi hona chahiye. Par mai bhi harne vaalon me se nahi hu, to aisa pehli baar ho raha hai mera ye andaaz hai ki film ka trailer theatre ki jagah hotel ke banquet hall mai janna chahta hu hamari awaaz dabane ki koshish kyu ho rahi hai.(And where should the trailer of the film dealing with Direct Action Day, Hindu genocide, Murshidabad riots, be launched? It should be launched in Kolkata only, but I'm not one of the losers, so this is happening for the first time. I guess the trailer of the film is being launched in the banquet hall of a hotel instead of a theatre. To hamari awaaz ko dabane ki koshish kyu ki ja rahi hai (but I want to know why efforts are being made to suppress our voice.)" The Bengal Files is slated to hit theatres on September 5, 2025.
