"Jatindranath Mukherjee is undoubtedly an inspiration for all. He is still alive in the heart of every Indian youth for his bravery and sacrifice. 'Bagha Jatin' is our Durga Puja bonanza for the audience. The movie is going to revive on screen the thrilling journey of this hero and the story has been narrated on a huge canvas in a unique way. It was indeed a daunting task for me to finely portray every shade of this particular character on the big screen. I hope the cine goers are going to enjoy the film. Moreover, the decision to present this inspiring story in Hindi will also open doors for millions of viewers across the nation to witness the story of Bagha Jatin," said Dev, who will be essaying the role of Bagha Jatin in the movie.
"In Bagha Jatin, I've had the incredible opportunity to step into the shoes of a character who, much like our brave freedom fighters of the past, knew the value of disguise in the pursuit of a greater cause. Just as they changed their looks to evade capture by the British, my character too undergoes a transformation to keep the flames of resistance burning. It's a humbling experience to portray this untold chapter of our history and pay tribute to those who fought valiantly for our freedom," he further added.
In addition to him, Arun Roy, who is the Director of the film said, "The story captures the essence of the particular period of India's struggle for its Freedom and Empowerment. Dev in the author backed role, along with the actors did absolute justice to their respective on screen characters. The movie aims to entertain as well as highlight the rich culture and history of our country. We hope to receive appreciation and strong support from the audience."
Talking about Dev's look in the movie, the audience will find him in a new avatar, showcasing a very rough one. At the time of the British Raj, the freedom fighters often used to take shelter in various places and used to take a disguise to skip being caught. These would help them in executing their freedom movement without hassles. Make up artist Somnath Kundu has created Dev's look in the film.
Bagha Jatin- a biohgraphical period action drama film is going to hit the multiplexes and single screens across India on October 19, 2023.
