Tnusree Chakraborty stars in supernatural thriller with a social core
Tnusree Chakraborty, Rajatava Dutta, and others star in the upcoming Bengali horror drama, 'Porii Monii,' directed by Siddarta Chakraborty and Souvik Dey. The film transcends jump scares, delving into societal wounds through the story of a mother and daughter haunted by a spectral presence. Actors Tnusree Chakraborty, Rajatava Dutta, Debraj Bhattacharjee, and Pragya Goswami come together for Porii Monii , an upcoming Bengali horror drama that goes beyond jump scares to explore deep societal wounds. Directed by Siddarta Chakraborty and Souvik Dey, the film blends supernatural elements with a hard-hitting social narrative. At the heart of Porii Monii is the unsettling tale of a mother and daughter haunted by the past. The story follows young Pori, whose body becomes the vessel for a three-month-old fetus—aborted forcefully years ago—returning as a voiceless, spectral presence. The film explores the psychological breakdown of a mother, the distortion of feminine consciousness, and the unseen pain carried by women across generations. ' Porii Monii began as a horror story, but we soon realised it was also a reflection of our society—where real terror often hides beneath everyday life,' say the directors. They addded, 'Through this film, we don't just aim to scare, but to provoke thought, raise questions, and unearth silenced truths.' "More than just a horror film, Porii Monii is a voice of resistance—an eerie yet emotional journey that challenges societal apathy and sheds light on the unspoken trauma that often lingers in silence," said Tnusree.
