Special screening in Kolkata

Abhishek Singh, a former IAS officer, is set to make his acting debut with the historical drama 1946: Direct Action Day. The film was also screened at the Cannes Film Festival, and now a special screening of the film was held in Kolkata, graced by several political dignitaries.

The special screening of 1946: Direct Action Day in Kolkata was attended by Suvendu Adhikari (Hon’ble Leader of Opposition, West Bengal Legislative Assembly) and hosted by Dr. Indranil Khan (State President, BJYM West Bengal) along with Shakti Singh (State Incharge, BJYM West Bengal). 

1946: Direct Action Day offers a haunting and powerful retelling of the Bengal riots—an often overlooked yet pivotal event that foreshadowed India’s Partition.
